The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

Timetravelling, the apocalypse and true love - sounds promising? Well, it isn't. First of all: the concept of time travel is used without any sense in the film, which annoys me, but maybe not everybody will find this disturbing. The movie is full of clichés, normal guy needs to save the world, but is really a hero, love seems doomed, but turns out stronger even than the apocalypse! Hooray. Even bystanders applaud when the two main characters find each other with a passionate kiss that seems to come out of the blue, how original. The time travel clichés are also present: a little change can make events develop totally differently (yeah, yeah, we know that by now). The clumsiness of the main character is too much, too stereotypical, and a mere attempt to imitate other films with similar anti-heroes. The situation in which somebody from the future who never had any alcohol goes totally drunk after one beer is also really-just-not-new. I'm being honest, I like movies, and nothing in this one seems to be original, it's an accumulation of poor copies of concepts that we have encountered in many films before.So aren't there any good things in this movie? Well, there are, some. Some dialogs (but not many) are quite funny, and the setting in Barcelona is warm and nice, the photography is quite all right though not exceptional. I wouldn't recommend anyone to go and see this movie at all.

It's a fun and creative movie. Although 'a timetraveller tells a nerd to save the world' sounds like heavy stuff, this movie is rather small. It could easily be played on stage! The use of pills to travel through time is brilliant and it brings us a couple of weird and funny situations. I loved it. But the smallness also makes it easy to forget this film...I should also mention that this story takes place in Barcelona. Therefor the language is not Spanish but Catalunian (?). And therefor the soccer club Fc Barcelona plays a funny part in it... Before I commit spoiling, I will stop now. Just go see it!

I recently saw this film at a showing at The Festival of Fantastic Films in Manchester, England.What a truly magical movie! It is similar in genre to Amelie and equally as unique. You MUST see this film It yet again proves that a $100 million Hollywood film does not alone make for a fantastic story!! It contains nothing to offend and yet everything to recommend it.The story is original and the fact that time travel is used without leaving the viewer confused and dazed is genius. All the different strands of time travel are neatly threaded together by the end. This is a brilliant feel good film, go and see it!!
