Time After Time Reviews
A fun movie where everything works
A really clever and original plot has HG Wells tracking Jack the Ripper into the future with his time machine. Part science fiction, part thriller, part comedy, and part romance- this movie works on any and all of the above levels. If Malocolm McDowell has ever given a better performance, I haven't seen it. The chemistry he has with his leading lady is real, of course and they would soon marry (and later divorce).
This is a movie where you don't go in expecting a lot and you get a really well done film that entertains on all levels.
A plausibly good ripping tale
Seems that H.G. Wells (Malcolm McDowell) does not just write about inventions; you see he has a real time machine and is showing it off to Dr. John Leslie Stevenson (David Warner.) John has a little secret. Looks like the police are on to him. There is only one way out. Exit London of 1893. Enter San Francisco of 1979. Herbert supplying the instrument of John's escape feels obliged to retrieve him.
Both men come across the same bank teller, Amy Robbins (Mary Steenburgen) in their travels. One thinks she is a little cut-up. The other thinks of "Free Love"; she sees her self as Susan B. Antony.
Other than exceptionally good acting the fun is in seeing the time travelers having to learn to navigate through their new environment.
