Movie Trailer - About Time



Why did you select this trailer to show the class?
      I prefer to watch movies that lead me to think deeply about a particular topic after I walk out the theater. Many of our regrets are about the imperfect events happened in the past. But does it really going to be better when we have the power or the machine which gives us a second chance? Time travel is definitely not a new topic for any movie, but the movie "About time" interpret this magic in a relationship between lovers which could lead to small but massive end to them. But in realistic, there is no time machine or this kind of superpower. Time passes all its way through, we have only one chance to any particular event in life. The topic of this movie reminds me to get prepared always, and see the time we shared with the one we loved much more preciously.

 Based on the trailer, what do you think the movie is about? 
      The guy in the movie one day realized he and his family have the power of time traveling, they can go back to any moment in the past only by closing their eyes and focusing on. However, this massive heritage was only used for getting the guy a girl friend, and the story begins. The power seems stable at first, the guy successfully get together with his dream girl by making up all the mistakes he did before. The gifted talent was actually complicated then he thought and comes with a massive but unapparent side-effect. The memory they shared was suddenly lost and his beloved girlfriend knows nothing about him. He then try everything to retrieve the lost memory and the rest of his written life.I think the director wants to talk about seizing the moment and expressing love in time, which are simple things but so easy to forget.

  1. I have seen a lot of my friends on Facebook sharing clips or their ideas on this movie. Most of their comments are positive and that triggered my interest in the movie. However, this is my first time watching the trailer so it is also the first time that I get an brief picture of what this movie is about. Although they speak British accent in the movie, but I think it is even more charming when they do so. I'll sure watch it in recent days!

  2. Last week I went to theater to watch this movie and I cried during the whole movie, this movie really make me thinking a lot about life and love. I think it is a great movie and I strongly recommend everyone should watch this movie! After watching this moive I suddenly feel that we should seize the day because we'll never know when we will meet death or something bad.
    I think the best part in the movie is the part the relationship between father and soon. At the end of the movie, father and son walk together on the beach, and when I saw this scene, I just keep crying because I think of my parents and just want to tell them I love you right away.
