Somewhere in Time

 Friday, December 31, 2010


This movie is horrible!!! Usually I'm not apt to dislike movies but this was horrendous! The main character Richard Collier(Christopher Reeve) was creepy!! At the very beginning of this movie an elderly women hands him a watch and begs him to come back to her. Later that day she dies. When he is on vacation in the Grand Hotel he enters the history room where a picture of a lady hangs. He becomes obsessed with this picture causing him not able to get to sleep and go a little crazy. Finally he is determined to make it to the year 1912. The only way to get there is to get there in your mind, making him hide everything that is from the present. Over and over again he starts chanting to himself that he is in the year 1912. All of these so...interesting...parts in the movie take over 40 min. Remember that he is creepily obsessed. When Elise McKenna(Jane Seymour) and Richard are finally able to be together she falls in love with him within three hours of them knowing each other. All this takes place very quickly and sadly. After some semi-dramatic parts happen they are reunited and .... It's a bad part. The next day they are talking, some of the things were actually funny, when he takes out a penny that is from the present and is ripped from the past into the present, leaving his watch. In the end he dies of heart-break. This entire movie was depressing, weird, creepy, and not at all romantic. Another thing is that they did take Jesus's name in vain. My advise to you is to not watch it!
