Wesley Morris
Even in a work of science fiction like this, Gleeson seems beyond real. All those foam-faces being made in the dark? They're for him.
Anthony Lane
Some people will revel in this warm front of innocence; others will reach for their Voltaire.
Joe Williams
There's a lot of comic and fantasy potential here, but much of it gets squandered.
Stephanie Zacharek
To get to the parts that are un-terrible, you have to suffer through the most idiotic plot developments and ill-defined characters imaginable.
Christy Lemire
You may as well check your cynicism at the door, because Curtis & Co. are going to find a way to trample all over it - adorably.
James Berardinelli
With more attention to detail, this could have worked, but the time travel aspects are so badly executed that the movie as a whole falters and eventually rips apart at the seams.

The film takes few of the liberties you'd expect from its genre, and it conforms to an internal logic throughout.
User reviews
Artistically Perfect & Unforgettably Profound 80's latch-key kid, daddy's girl, raised largely on TV/Movies, and Broadcast Journalism as my Degree, I am not super mushy, but AM very picky about every facet of quality in the entertainment industry. This film moved, fascinated and wowed me. Curtis, the director, never gives too much or pushes his concept on us, but gives us just enough to tell the story and keep us guessing scene by scene. My FIRST comment on any film in any venue, however, I intensely believe in the possible impact should all view it.

Pleasantly surprised This movie definitely exceeded my expectations. On the surface, it's a cute and quirky love story. Honestly, I thought that was all I was going to get. What took by surprise was that there was more to it than that. I don't want to ruin it for anyone so I won't go into the details, but I actually felt happy after watching it. If you want to see a movie that that just makes you feel good, then this is a must see no matter how old you are. Edit: Didn't realize it was rated R. If you're over 18, you'll love it!
