    Snoozable

    Let's just be honest. It was so boring, I fell asleep 15 minutes into it. Woke up five minutes before the conclusion. Didn't miss anything. Saw them open time capsule. Boy gets girl...

    a waste of time.

    This is without a doubt the worst movie ever from Larry Levinson. The story line was lame and never developed. It was more like cliches from other movies. The acting left you wondering from where these people came. Wardrobe needed help, but most of all was the sickening sound track. No one could ever call this noise music. I gave it a 1 because we don't have a zero...

    Bland leads

    This romance lacks romance. High school pals reunite years later and reopen the contents of their time capsule. The actors lack charisma. So the show isn't watchable. The romance is boring. The little theme about history isn't that meaningful.

    Don't bother.

    Is there romance in here somewhere?

    Two couples. No chemistry in either. OK, maybe a little with Shanica Knowles and Gregg Wayans who played Jane and Peter. But even that was all coy and trying to avoid admitting it. Because of the lack of chemistry, it was hard to buy into the idea that at least one of the couples was ready to make a grand gesture or to commit. And the woman of that couple was all over the place in her emotions. Her grand gesture was nonsensical at least if she expected to succeed in both her plans.

    The acting for all four was flat, like phoning it in.

    The story mixed in a few things that aren't overused. There's been time capsules, but not all that common. The ending was likewise, some twists mixed in with the predictable. The role switches were interesting.
