Frequently Asked Questions About Time Travel
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT TIME TRAVEL (2009) - Nov. 13, 2010
A surprisingly enjoyable film about three friends who wind up jumping around in time (all revolving around their local pub). Sort of like Timecrimes meets Shaun of the Dead (though it's not on the level of either of those movies), this was actually quite time travel-heavy, and is the type of thing that probably rewards repeat viewings (though it is far, far more straightforward than something like Timecrimes). The film was obviously shot on a low budget and almost entirely revolves around the pub, but it definitely manages to weave an intriguing time travel story. Though not exactly laugh-out-loud hilarious, the three main characters were all quite affable and had definite chemistry (you buy them as long-time friends) and the film was briskly-paced and entertaining throughout. ***
