About Time: an airport-run cliché stretched into a feature film.

The science in About Time has the same relationship to physics that I have to going to the gym: aspirational.

If exposition were a contact sport, About Time would be banned for life.

Why does no one talk about how mid the writing in About Time actually is?
Everyone praising the About Time performances must have watched a different cut. The lead is sleepwalking through this and the supporting cast can't save it.

[Spoilers] Can we discuss that absolutely baffling ending in About Time?
Rewatched About Time last night and noticed even more plot holes than the first time. The motivations don't track at all once you stop and think about act two.

[Serious Discussion] Is anyone else completely checked out by the pacing in About Time?
Look, I wanted to love About Time. The trailer had me hyped. But sitting through the second hour felt like a homework assignment. The dialogue is exposition stacked on exposition and the score keeps telling me how to feel.
