My review · Reviewed 07/04/2022
The reviews on this movie seem to be a bit mixed. I am generally not a fan of science fiction so the sci-fi part of this movie was just a backdrop to me. If you toss that aside you have a terrific movie about fathers and sons and the movie definitely works best at this level. I know that we've seen a lot of what happened in this movie before (there are only so many things you can do with time travel, and I think it is safe to say that they've been done) and that's fine. The movie is a ton of fun and has a big heart - sometimes that is enough.
