The Time Capsule

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 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.

Compelling performance by this young actress. I totally believed she was lost in this place of being treated like a kid by those who knew her before and not fitting in with the young people she was meeting now. So it made sense to me that she would want to connect with her former boyfriend even though he now "looks old".

Such an interesting concept and I liked how the filmmaker handled the ending. Very unique!!

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.

Nothing sensational or oscar winning but interesting and will pass an hour or so comfortably. Give it a go. The negative reviews here need to relax a bit! The premise is a classic what if in science fiction but I cannot recall the diea of a person returning to Earth after years in space being unaged as a film plot. The idea poses many issues for the naturally aged family and others the space traveller comes back to see. Steadily paced, relying on the dialogue to create the issues and concerns and to show the testing of relationships. Perhaps, a bigger budget , star status actors and top director would have demanded more but the idea is there and they have put it up to be quietly enjoyed.
