All in Time Travel
Christopher Nolan's INTERSTELLAR
The only other movie within recent memory that packed a similar emotional wallop for me was TREE OF LIFE
Tom Tykwer, Andy Wachowski, & Lana Wachowski's CLOUD ATLAS
What a gorgeous movie to look at this is! Plus, the intertwining stories and jumps in time provide amazing and often confusing food for thought.
Akiva Goldsman's WINTER'S TALE
I’m a sucker for well done but romantic time travel films. This one compares favorably to the romantic classic Somewhere In Time.
Doug Liman's EDGE OF TOMORROW
I was unprepared for how really good this movie is.
Bryan Singer's X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST
But with a movie like X-Men you get the sense that there is just too much of everything — too many characters, too many action scenes, too many speeches, too many forgettable details.
Barry Sonnenfeld's MEN IN BLACK III
To my surprise, I really enjoyed many Men in Black III. What did I like about it?
Woody Allen's MIDNIGHT IN PARIS
Roger Ebert in his review of this movie says “There is nothing to dislike about it.” If you read his whole review there’s clearly much to like about it, despite a rocky start.
Mamoru Hosoda's “THE GIRL WHO LEAPT THROUGH TIME”
At first I thought, “Uh-oh, this is another one of those interminable animes about Japanese high school kids dealing with adolescent angst.” Boy, was I wrong.
