D.A. P This movie has to be in my top 10 favorite time travel movies of all time. With Jeannot Szwarc directing- this movie follows a romance story of a playwright who travels back in time to find an actress from an older era that he falls in love with. Starring Christopher Reeve (Superman) and Jane Seymour (Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman), and also based on Twilight Zone crew member and author Richard Matheson and his novel "Bid Time Return"- this movie shows us that we would do anything to have time travel and to fall in love with someone out of our own era and to have a romance that would span the decades. 4 out of 5 stars- See this movie for not only its romance, but its great story. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/14/25 Full Review Audience Member Appeared like a TV made movie with the soundtrack of a masterpiece.Shows you how powerfull a good score is. John Barry saved that movie. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 07/12/25 Full Review Spar K An interesting riff on metaphysical consciousness powered by love. The Renoir-esque costuming & set design provide yet another layer of dream-like, old-timey vibes for the beautiful Jane Seymour & Christopher Reeves to make slow, enraptured love in. The ending turns a bit Overlook Hotel…but the film still manages to resonate in a sweet yet haunting way. Destined for late night viewing on the Hallmark Channel but not without its own weird nostalgic charm.

Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 07/11/25 Full Review Larry P Christopher Reeve's career might be one of the most tragic stories in Hollywood history. As a student at Juilliard, Reeve was told by John Hauseman, one of his instructors, to finish school as soon as possible to get on with what was certain to be his path as a superstar actor. While Reeve is best known as Clark Kent, this was his favorite film. Maybe it was because he and Jane Seymour (according to Seymour) really did fall in love while making the picture. Their on-screen chemistry certainly makes that a believable story. This is a powerful romantic film and triggered a rapid run to the rabbit hole to learn more about Maude Adams, the real-life actress that inspired Richard Matheson's book, Bid Time Return. John Barry's mesmerising score should've earned an Oscar nomination, and the setting on Mackinac Island are both strong characters here. This picture is 40 years old and there are still October events every year on Mackinac Island commemorating the film, which has become a cult classic. Get your kleenex ready.
