Live the day like you’ve lived it once before, like you’ve traveled back in time.
About time(2013)
#Movie review:01
So today I watched an wonderful movie named about time. I didn’t expect it to be this good. Every time I watched a movie I really look forward to it. I make myself free and do all the work in advance so that I can watch the movie freely.
But today I just had a little time extra and didn’t find anything to do. Tried to study but couldn’t concentrate. So I was scrolling through my gallery and found this movie(About time). I downloaded it a few days ago and completely forgot to watch😜. So with the free time I had in my hand I sit down and started to watch the movie.
I wasn’t expecting anything great from the movie. I was just watching cz I want to kill some time. But the very first 5 minutes is enough for me to get interested in the movie. And the main reason is the plot.
The plot was quite simple. After turning 21 years old Jim’s(main hero) family members(only man) can go back in time. So jim tried it and he succeeded. So he use this power to fix his mistakes. By using this power he got himself a girlfriend he liked and he also fix his sister’s life too. She was sober with alcohol and her relationship with her boyfriend wasn’t good. She totally broke down inside. But jim traveled back in time and helped her to find a perfect boyfriend.
So as the movie progressed he was living a perfect life he wanted. Whenever he mistook something he went back in time and did perfectly this time. But his time travel has a limit. He can’t travel back in time before his birth and can’t travel future. So when his dad diagnosed with cancer, his dad had given him a piece of advice that “live everyday normally and when the day ends go back in time and live that day again”. That’s how his dad lived a perfect happy life. He lived that way and was happy with his wife and three children.
But he even went one step further than his dad. Which is He never went back in time at all. Not once. “He lived the day like he has lived it once before, like he has traveled back in time.”
