Empire - Unnamed
More than just a time-travel rom-com, this is a movie that asks you questions and doesn’t sugar-coat as many of the answers as you’d expect. Smart and sweet, funny and genuinely moving. Should probably come with a ‘there’s something in my eye’ warning.

Variety - Leslie Felperin
Curtis ends up making a virtue out of the narrative’s episodic quality, a tendency that’s been criticized in his previous work; the film, like life, is just one damn thing after another, and that’s really the rather lovely point.
63
Slant Magazine - Chris Cabin
A surprisingly thoughtful romantic comedy that shirks a great deal of reason and consequence in the name of love.
60
The Hollywood Reporter - Stephen Dalton
There are just enough laugh-out-loud moments here to excuse the lurches into shameless, tear-jerking sentimentality.

The Telegraph - Robbie Collin
About Time is itself a film less directed than quilted: it’s a feathery old patchwork under which you might snuggle at the end of a tiring week.
