...About time...

No, it's not about time in a mathematical way. It's about the movie About Time. Beautiful. Well, the plot is logically(physically) a bit flawed, and even this flawed concept contradicts itself at places and I don't like marriages, children and stuff but the movie is quite beautiful. The direction, the narration, the music, the usual movie stuff are all good and in sync. Rachel McAdams is as fabulous as ever. There's something in her eyes... hmm... never mind. So, the movie is all goddie-good with not much brains or twists but it has something which most million dollar movies lack, a message. Well, the movie is about this guy going back in time and fixing his life, and all, but the final message it delivers is not that you should go and get some superhuman genes, but that you should go out and enjoy every moment of your life as it comes so you don't have to regret something and go back and fix it. And it lays it down with this logically-flawed-but-emotion-laden story. Hmm... it's quite good. Worth watching.
