While the premise is an interesting one the execution is not great. Not even close. It comes out at a stuttering pace and is predictable to boot. This equals boring.

Rated: 2/5

While it has a good concept, & there is a quite intimacy and grace to the storytelling, The Time Capsule ultimately falters, focusing on a character we're seen too often, & not spending enough time on the far more interesting character and her story.

25YL (25 Years Later)

Embracing a quaint romance with heady consequences, "The Time Capsule" flicks its wrist for a little magic without sacrificing the seriousness of its premise’s implications.

Rated: 4/5

This is a sweet little movie, and a thought provoking one as well. What would you do if you had a second chance with your high school sweet heart after 20 years. Would you give your career, the life that you made and the love that you found in these 20 years. Would you give up all that for that first love. Now what happens if that sweet heart of yours didn't age at all. Well ... Now this is a slow paced movie with a decent making. Nothing path breaking. But if you are someone who missed their sweet heart even after all these years ... this might appeal to your heart.

The movie was based on an interesting concept. What would you do if given a second chance after 20 years with your high school sweetheart. Except, she hasn't aged a day. Thought provoking.

This is a very good film if you know Einstein's work on relativity, or Carl Sagan's 1980s TV programs. This film may turn out to be prophetic if Elon Musk has his way. Science fiction is in your blood, if you have any interest in the universe. The first two Alien films; Star Trek; Star Wars, etc. have made science a lot of fun while scaring us. Fact: if you travel near the speed of light, you will not age. What if the love of your life left on a 10 year trip to another solar system and came back? You would have aged, but they would literally be 20 years younger than you. The Time Capsule is well acted and well made.
