Helen O'Hara Time Out Crowley, having nailed his casting, directs with a light hand and follows the emotion through, to good effect. It feels real, and honest, in a way that too few romantic films manage. Rated: 4/5 Dec 13, 2024 Full Review Tim Cogshell FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles) A deeply moving and beautifully performed film. Nov 4, 2024 Full Review Lauren Coates Chicago Reader hough Pugh and Garfield (particularly the latter) bring intense, raw emotionality to otherwise by-the-numbers material, We Live in Time is an overall predictable addition to a strangely prevalent romantic subgenre. Nov 2, 2024 Full Review Kevin Harley Radio Times With Bryce Dessner's graceful score and Crowley's sensitive handling also factored in, this fitfully absorbing weepie works best when it gives its emotions room to breathe. Rated: 3/5 Dec 21, 2024 Full Review Maria Lattila Film Stories There’s something appealing and impressive about a film that’s this honest and unashamed to be so romantic. Rated: 4/5 Dec 19, 2024 Full Review Tom Beasley Voice Magazine All of human life is here in this film and it’s a joy to watch it flash by your eyes. It might just make you value your own life even more. Rated: 5/5 Dec 18, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

Beny M This movie was okay but kinda boring. I thought there would be more emotions I really didn’t think it was that sad which is what I was expecting but didn’t really get any of that. I felt like the story was good but not great only reason I give a 2 and a half stars. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 12/17/24 Full Review Michael K Was a cute movie & sad but nothing to ride home about. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 11/27/24 Full Review Nobody No plot was stupid. Waste of money! Rated 1 out of 5 stars 11/25/24 Full Review Lisa W I liked the movie a lot. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/25/24 Full Review Marilyn The acting was good and story had sad ending but still well done. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/21/24 Full Review Matthew D Hollywood, please make more movies like this: adult dramas that are well written and well-acted. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/20/24 Full Review Read all reviews
