Why, you ask? I don't know...I could point out that it's about time travel, it's set in the UK, and has a gorgeous female lead. But I can imagine another movie that had all those ingredients, that I didn't like nearly as much.
I think the main thing I liked about About Time is just that it has such a good feel about it: sad, compassionate, wise, and overall very positive. The feel-good hit of this week, for me.
Apropos of nothing: this is the third movie time travel movie I've seen which starred Rachel McAdams. Isn't that odd?
