- "Somewhere in Time"
(Reviewed August 30, 2000)
- Scheduled for re-release in Fall 2000 at "select theatres" (as they say), this is a schmaltzy, soapy, hokey, corny, impossibly romantic fantasy that I just happen to love.
Yes,
I know that Christopher Reeve
overdoes his Clark Kent-ish mannerisms and can't really act worth a damn, and that the whole production has a vaguely "TV movie" feel. But Jane Seymour is radiantly gorgeous, the John Barry score (and
Rachmaninoff theme) is tear-jerkingly beautiful, and there is an overall sweetness to the movie that makes it easy to just "sit back and enjoy." Take a date, guys -- you WILL get laid that night!
