phoebe 💫May 15, 2020I wish someone would look at me the way Christopher Reeve looks at the picture of Jane Seymour.

angelaMay 9, 2013It's the hotel guest from hell (Christopher Reeve), re-arranging his room, bothering the guests and waking up the caretaker in the middle of the night, demanding to go in the attic. And all because he's fallen in love with a woman from 1912 (Jane Seymour). This…

if christopher reeve can just wish himself back 60 years in time for a woman he saw in a picture then i guess i'm wishing myself back to 1972 to date young al pacino who's stopping me
feliMe in the beginning: Jesus christ another boring time travel movie centered on a love interest, god damnit. Me half way: You know, this is actually incredibly charming, I really like this movie, yeah, it's fun, despite how tunnel visioned it is. Me towards the end: I…
AmirJun 21, 2021I have never seen a time travel romance so disinterested in both time travel and romance. I can forgive a movie with a loose explanation of its sci-fi element, which, in this case, can be summed up with “dude goes 70 years into the past by concentrating really hard and…

- Zoe is "meh" onSomewhere in Time
The first hour is him creepily being obsessed with her and begging her to spend time with him (hey dude!! that’s not cool!! no wonder she’s afraid of you!) and maybe his charisma could make up for it if this weren’t an 80s movie that is. so. long.
Gena Steen likedSomewhere in Timewhen he found the penny and was sent back to his own time i literally got chills, i wasn’t thinking so it was so unexpected and totally got me, and i was sad and lowkey scared 😭 can’t believe he pulled a bella swan in new moon at the end 😒
Libby lovedSomewhere in TimeLOVE. Always makes me emotional. Plus it was filmed on Mackinac Island in Michigan- there is a rock with a plaque of the spot where they first meet, it’s so cute.
- Jana likedSomewhere in Time
It was kind of…funny? It was so dramatic but I felt like it didn’t take itself too seriously either, which was refreshing. I was entertained.
IzzyB lovedSomewhere in TimeI love this movie, the characters were so fun to watch. Honestly would want a man to treat me like how Richard treats Elise.
Kent LeHoullier lovedSomewhere in TimeClassic if not a bit strange movie with a beautiful John Barry soundtrack. Despite some corniness I loved it!

chloerenaek likedSomewhere in TimeA very interesting film. I spent 30 minutes debriefing what I just watched after it finished.
South Philly Dilly Dilly Jawn lovedSomewhere in TimeIt strikes you in the feels and involves my favorite paranormal subject, time travel.

Metacritic
Director Jeannot Szwarc strains hard for spectacular visual effects, though he's barely able to compose a competent close-up.
Dave Kehr
Chicago Reader
The whole movie is so solemn, so worshipful toward its theme, that it's finally just silly.
Roger Ebert
Chicago Sun-Times
The screenplay is priceless (funny) and it's Mr. Reeve who sets the film's tone. Unfortunately, his unshadowed good looks, granite profile, bright naivete and eagerness to please - the qualities that made him such an ideal Superman - look absurd here.
