The Time Capsule

This reminds me very much of the The Lake House(2006) which is a wonderful romantic drama with lots of twists and turns. It left me in the same mood as that film so I'll certainly watch it again.

If you are on the fence about watching this then pay no attention to many of the reasonably sounding negative reviews as they don't reflect reality. Its hard to imagine those reviewers actually watched all the way through.

Firstly it has a wonderful script, with plenty of drama, and no plot holes for me. At times I wasn't sure who was in love with who as there are at least three possibles, perhaps more, but I'll not spoil things.

The cast are all new to me and everyone seemed so realistic in their roles. Its hard to pick anyone out as the casting worked so well. Again they all seemed real and everyone different.

For me its 9 out of 10, as for some reason it seemed a bit short although at 1h 45m it is longer than The Lake House. I'm so glad I ignored those early negative reviews.

I did not plan to write review of this movie, but seeing about 10 1-ns in row here (rated by usefulness or whatever), followed with rating 10 - made me to do it.

I think that there were some good ideas, scenes, dialogs in this movie, and acting was OK. The reason for hate is probably main character, actor playing it. Not some macho, charismatic one. I had more problems with actress playing Elise. Obviously more than 18 years, rather about 25. And was not impressed with her acting too. Although material was not impressive too.

Most likeable character was wife, especially in first hour.

Low budget, indeed. Despite some interstellar travels with speed near to light speed, cars on streets were like today cars. All it did not look as some even 'near' future with much more advanced technology.

Ending was little disappointment, and a bit rushed in my opinion.

There were some good points about political fights in elections, about depression.

Overall, pretty inconsistent.

I believe that all people who ranked this movie as 1 urgently need a shrink. You can only see evil if there is evil within you.

I was shocked by the amount of unhelpful comments about the film. The year 2022 surprised by the number of bad and boring movies that were released. Basically more of the same over and over again.

The Time Capsule is a good surprise. I didn't have high expectations, but I decided to take a chance, especially after seeing the amount of haters.

The film has good performances, a creative story and takes a different look at how love can withstand time. Brianna is very cute and deserves praise for her performance. It's important to remember that this movie doesn't have an unlimited budget, but I'm sure you'll like it.

I'm a sucker for any "time" related sci-fy, so the plot got hocked, it's 1 am so why not? A 17yo girl goes on a space flight leaving her 18yo boyfriend behind. These flights are not supposed to come back to Earth but hers does a few months later. Even though her time was only a few months, 20 years had passed in Earth due to Time Dilation given by Special Relativity. She's now 18yo while the ex-boyfriend is a married 38yo, creepy.

The movie was kinda of cute until their "drunken" scene by the lake; I would've edited it out and just have him explain why it can't workout. I'm GenX, can't imagine having a relationship with a millennial; just the political views would likely be vastly different. Still the movie was OK and maybe worth ~6.2 instead of 5.3.

Now the technical problem. The girl went out for the space trip for just a few months yet 20 years went by in Earth. The space ship had to travel at about 99.97% the speed of light for these #'s to work out. This speed is highly unlikely in the near future.

You know how they reuse the same story line over and over again. The super spy who can beat up 15 armed men with nothing but a pool noodle. The RomCom where they accidentally meet, some sparks fly, then a disagreement separates them but in the end they get back together? There are so many storylines that are so played.

This is original. Two teenagers fall in love. Then one goes on a intergalactic voyage. She comes back and everyone has aged 20 years but she hasn't aged a day. Then she finds her old flame, now close to 40, and they rekindle their romance.

Ok, it's pretty stupid. I agree. Bring back the guy with the pool noodle. One star for originality. Six stars for Brianna Hildebrand. She is a talented actress, and I'm looking forward to seeing her work for many years to come.
