Have read hundreds of reviews but never written one here before. I love a film that I could never have made. Pretty much my harshest criticism of a film is, I could have made that. I could never have made this film. It has far too much depth of characterisation, and the character interplay and dialogue and creation of subtle narrative is far in excess of anything I could create. Seriously I am in awe of this film. Low key and yet intense. Confident and yet always tender. I love the quiet intros to new scenes. That's one of the things that defines the style. It's all about relationships, and how we can be both naive and manipulating, open and yet have secrets. There is an art to writing and creating characters who are deep, that we care for, who are full of surprises, that I could never master like this. I'm reminded of another film Open Water that took something as a starting point and invented all the events around it and delivered a character and dalogue driven powerhouse. I loved that too. Right now I am rating this as my favourite film. In a way I don't want it to finish. Shivers down my spine. Maybe they could make a series out of it? That could be brilliant too.

As bad an actress as Plaza is and as cheerfully try-hard this flick turned out to be, I'd still happily watch Duplass doing his taxes. On that basis, I found this movie underwhelming but still providing enough points for my attention to cling onto -- hence the most favorable rating.That aside... I mean... it's only just another formulaic, quirky rom-com. Cute at times, cringe-worthy at others, characters a little flat, narrative contextually askew in order to fit the love-story. Nothing that hasn't been done before or won't be done again -- a 'take it or leave it' effort.

Darius is an intern of a magazine. One day, her boss finds an odd ad in a newspaper. It says ad writer is looking for a company to do time travel with. She starts investigation with her boss and a colleague and finds the ad writer and starts close coverage.Actually, I couldn't enjoy this film and this is not my favorite, because I couldn't understand the whole story and the ending. Also I couldn't get why the film genre changes suddenly at the end.However, the story is about human relationship until just before the end. For example, they're her boss and his ex-girlfriend, her colleague and girls and she and ad writer. But they're described only half and I wonder half more. So the ending must not be sci-fi.
