Audience Member Was entertained throughout the movie Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/11/25 Full Review Roland S I found it profoundly irritating because it demonstrated a complete lack of understanding of mediaeval France. It was set in the Dordogne, right? Very few people there would have understood French, which was essentially the language of Paris - a long way away, given the lack of decent roads - so an American student, even with a thorough grasp of Old French, probably wouldn't have got very far. Maybe if he had a comprehensive grounding in mediaeval Occitan dialects he might have stood a better chance, though that wouldn't be guaranteed. Notice also that none of the young Americans is affected by culture shock - which should be extreme - and none of them is struck down with any of the diseases which were common at the time, such as typhoid, plague, cholera or dysentery (although they were mostly not called by those names.) I'm afraid that having an intuitive grasp of French history and culture ruined the film for me. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 08/23/25 Full Review Eye C It lift me so many questions, in the end it’s a fantasy playing to be a sc-fi, but all the scientific facts around the evolution, time travel, string theory it make this movie not believable. But it’s entertaining after all. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 06/30/25 Full Review Marcos R Good soundtrack, the historic setup was great and it was exciting. The dialogue / writing was abysmal at times and the acting was pretty bad, but I ironically enjoyed it. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 06/28/25 Full Review Ralph R Timeline turned out to be way more enjoyable than I expected. It doesn’t dig too deep into the whole time travel logic, which might leave sci-fi fans a little underwhelmed, but it leans into the historical adventure side of things in a way that works. The pacing keeps things moving without getting bogged down, and while the directing doesn’t bring anything groundbreaking, it keeps the story tight and the action easy to follow. The cinematography isn’t particularly standout, but there are some cool wide shots and atmospheric moments that help set the tone. The acting is solid all around. Paul Walker has that likable, grounded vibe, and Gerard Butler brings some intensity to the screen. The cast actually makes the movie better than it probably would’ve been otherwise. The script plays it pretty safe and falls into some familiar patterns, but it still manages to be fun. As for the score, it fits the vibe without being too memorable. Overall, Timeline isn’t the smartest or deepest movie, but it’s a good time if you’re in the mood for a fast-paced historical adventure with a sci-fi twist. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 04/01/25 Full Review Roger L My criteria for rating a movie is quite simple. Was I reasonably entertained for the duration and would I consider watching the movie again at some future time. For Timeline, when I first watched it years ago, I was entertained and have watched it a couple of time over the years. So, for my 2 cents, Timeline gets 4 stars!
