Ya era hora

Husband and i did not expect much from this small movie with unknown (to us) actors, but we ended up quickly roped in by its theme and how cleverly it develops. A Groundhog Day idea unfolding on another plane- this story is of an inoffensive enough but flawed man discovering what and who he is about to lose, and what his benign neglect will cost him. We watched the film in Italian with subtitles to not miss the local flavor, and discovered a great story that unfolds subtly, yet at a crisp pace. On a background of -basically- the tragedy of modern life-, the story goes from funny to hugely emotional without ever being cloying or pandering. And no pat ending either. This script is brilliant and original, and the 2 main actors are a joy to watch. Loved it,

I can't believe that its a 6/10! Are people alright!?

I usually just "read" reviews and don't bother writing one but I created an IMBD account to "defend" rather than review this one! I'm not a very sentimental person, and I rarely ever cry while watching movies but I cried twice watching this one! Think Sandler's "Click" but much better! I watched it without any expectations and I might have end up hyping or raising expectations for those who haven't watched yet, we may not completely agree on how profound this movie is, but definitely do give it a chance!

It does serve as a reminder to re-evaluate what are our goals and priorities in life are.

This movie is the best movie i have recently watched. Explains how time passes by and there is nothing we can do once it's passed. So take your time, live in now. Because now is all you have. Never procrastinate important things such as family, love, having a pet. Learn what's important in life and put other things always aside. This movie hits really different when you are on your late twenty's and you haven't even realized how the time passed after 18. It's even much worse when you start to lose beloved ones one by one as they get older. Passed three years i lost my two very close people and after that i had realized the time is worth to spend only with your loved ones. Make more memories, and live in now.

Initially, this movie appears to be based on the familiar concept of time travel (loops), but is made in a brilliant and original way. Movies that make you reflect on your own life and motivates you to actually change are rare. This movie is certainly one of those rare jewels, focusing on the importance of living in the present and caring for family and friends, rather than being self-centered and selfish. Workaholics would benefit from seeing this movie. The weakness of the movie is that it took the main character too long time to understand that he needed to change, in particular to free up time to spend with family and friends.

This is the first review I have ever written about a movie. I think this is really a masterpiece!

It is a movie, if you watch and listen, a movie that will make you think about your life - in a very constructive way.

I have always tried to keep a journal and review my life on my birthday - what have I done maybe wrong and what maybe right, to try see the big picture. I think this movie is exactly about this - to see and keep an eye on the big picture, the important things in life.

And probably the best possible way to see the big picture is maybe when forgetting about the small stuff, maybe forgetting about everything for a while and then just seeing the results of your past decisions, small decisions leading to great changes. And then to choose wisely while slowing down for a while which way not to and which way to go.

A beautiful movie!
