With clever writing and execution, along with delightful performances by Leo and Ronchi as well as the small supporting cast, Still Time delivers as being one of the best movies you didn’t know you wanted to see and an expected best of the year.

Still Time is both heartfelt and heartbreaking, teaching us that life is short, so we must appreciate what we have.

Rated: 4/5

Even though there’s a lot of predictability, the narrative still manages to deliver some big gut punches. The message of the story is straightforward and might be slightly preachy, but it’s effective and meaningful.

Rated: 3.5/5

Still Time offers many lovely moments that emphasize the importance of family, but it's a frustrating and at times tedious journey to get to the good stuff.

Rated: 2/5

Despite its televisive format, Still Time is simple and doesn't extend its welcome, keeping in line with its principal message: time is valuable. [Full review in Spanish]

But Why Tho? A Geek Community

Still Time is a really great allegory for how bad we all are at living in the present and how hard but necessary it is to change ourselves before it’s too late.

Rated: 7.5/10

It’s not a “time loop” movie and it isn’t just Italian Click either, it’s somewhere between the two where Dante (Edoardo Leo) wakes up every morning on his birthday, each day becoming one year older. With this plot device, Dante ascends the corporate ladder in his… well, it’s not exactly clear what his company does, but that’s probably the point and loses the woman he loves (Barbara Ronchi), distances himself from his daughter (Valentina Pastore), ailing father (Massimo Wertmüller), etc. etc. It’s actually a brilliant concept that could’ve been used to create a compelling story of anguish, but it’s never clear what Dante does during the other 364 days of the year. You’d think that some sort of recording/text/etc. would be made (the plot is approx. a decade from 2008, so the technology exists) to help explain it, but we never see anything of the sort. The message is the one we’ve all seen ten thousand times before and is so predictable while remaining so true. There really isn’t a reason to see this movie.

Not the 1st movie to deal with the issues of the importance of valueing time with family and friends. At times a bit slow, but effective, with the cast making a committed effort for this Italian movie to work.

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

Engaging from the start. I was filled with delight at times, others wonderment and being very touched. Great casting - doesn't hurt that the main actor is very good looking. I highly recommend this gem.

Es war Zeit ist ein Liebesfilm mit Fantasy-Elementen von Alessandro Aronadio… Dante ist ein Workaholic, während Alice eine Künstlerin ist. Ihre Beziehung wird durch den Rhythmus von Dantes Leben auf die Probe gestellt… Eine originelle Geschichte, gut erzählt und mit Tiefgang… Ein ausgezeichnet inszeniertes italienisches Kino… Wer auf romantische Filme mit Tiefe steht, sollte sich "Es war Zeit" nicht entgehen lassen…

Rated 4 out of 5 stars
