In this clever British comedy from director Gareth Carrivick, three down-on-their-luck lads meet for a pint and find themselves sucked into a hilarious time-travel adventure via the pub bathroom. Ray (Chris O'Dowd) is a sci-fi obsessed geek who has just been fired from his job at an amusement park. He meets up with his mates, Pete (Dean Lennox Kelly) and Toby (Marc Wootton), and they settle into a pub booth to bemoan their nonexistent careers, mock Hollywood films, and debate the merits of being a "nerd." However, their mellow night is thrown for a loop when Ray heads up for another round and meets the lovely Cassie (Anna Faris). Cassie claims to be from the future, and she spins a wild tale for Ray about her inner time machine. Ray assumes Pete and Toby are playing a prank, and he returns to their table annoyed, but they haven’t a clue what he is talking about. Everyone thinks Cassie is a big joke, but when Pete heads to the bathroom, he ends up stumbling into an actual time portal and traveling to the future, where he has a horrible vision of his own death. He races back through the portal to tell the present-day Ray and Toby, and soon enough all three are running back and forth through time as they try to solve the mystery of Pete’s death, unravel the baffling rules of time travel, and get back to the present--and, more importantly, their waiting pints. All three male leads turn in excellent performances, and Faris (HOUSE BUNNY) is an understated pleasure. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT TIME TRAVEL is Carrivick's debut feature, and he has crafted a delightfully entertaining comedy with a brainteaser plot to boot. Fans of SHAUN OF THE DEAD and BILL AND TED’S EXCELLENT ADVENTURE will likely find the flick most enjoyable, no matter their place on the time-space continuum. [More]
