Somewhere In Time ? 1912, to be Precise.
Thus continues my quest to find good romance movies – most preferably with a happy ending. So far I haven’t done too well. Untamed Heart had me blubbering into Kleenex, Like Water for Chocolate had me throwing my hands up and yelling, “Oh come on!” and this movie,... Read full review »

The film begins in Chicago 1972 where Richard Collier (played by Christopher Reeve, who will always be Superman to me), a college theater student is celebrating the debut of his play with a group of students. While this is...

"Come back to me."
I'm not sure how old I was the first time I watched our beat-up VHS copy of Somewhere in Time; it had to be several years after my first visit to Mackinac Island at age four. Over the years, I've come to greatly appreciate the nuances (and standalone merits) of this most gentle and unique love... Read full review »
Is It You?
When one asks the question- what makes a great romantic story, the answer ultimately is: did you feel it?
Richard Matheson wrote a story called Bid Time Return. In the novel, the writer learns he is dying and goes off to think his life through. He comes across a hotel that was built...

A Flawless Yet Forgotten Film
Somewhere in Time (1980) was a new film to me and has become one of my favorite films of all time just after one viewing. I mainly chose to view this because Teresa Wright was in it and I wanted to see some of the work she did in her later years as an actress. The fact that Jane Seymour and... Read full review »

"Is it You?".... "Yes."
Somewhere in Time is an enchantingly romantic movie involving time travel. Re-watching it recently for the first time in many years, I did a little time traveling of my own, back to the early 1980s when I first saw this lovely film starring Christopher Reeve and Jane Seymour.
I have an...

You can't escape destiny
When I found Somewhere in Time, I was actually looking for time-travel movies. At first, it sounded like a straight-up time-travel movie. The more I read about it, the more I realized that it had more of a romance theme. I was still interested, though.
The story is about a playwright...

"Somewhere In Time" Romance and Time Travel with Christopher Reeve
I received the DVD movie Somewhere in Time (Collector's Edition) as a Christmas gift. I've enjoyed this movie since it was first released in 1980 and have watched it several times over the years. There are a couple of little things about it I didn't like, but overall it is a wonderful and romantic... Read full review »
Its Like a Bad Romance Novel
I guess I am going to have to disagree on this one with everyone. I found this movie to be incredibly boring. The set-up took forever, the romance was too short, and the ending was disheartening. It also dragged in the middle. It's a good idea--and actually a good story, the acting great, as well... Read full review »
Great Idea, Disappointing Movie
Like "Field Of Dreams," Hollywood has once again taken a wonderful "time-warp" concept and ruined it with a shoddy script. Poor Christopher Reeve is saddled with a goopy plot, awful writing, and a lightweight resolution. Rod Serling would have known what to do with the concept. Those who put this... Read full review »
Somewhere in Time: An Excellent Love Story
The 1980 Jeannot Szwarc-directed film "Somewhere in Time", to this day, remains a cult favorite, highly regarded as one of the best romantic films ever made. Personally, I'm one of those who agrees with that assessment. From the first time I saw it, when I was much younger than I am now, the very... Read full review »
Somewhere In Time will be a classic forever.
Recently my son, Flamepillar, did a review on the movie "Frequency" which deals with time-travel. At that time I suggested that he check out "Somewhere In Time". Although it is a romance, the concept of time-travel is integral to the story. Released 23 years ago in 1980, this film continues to this... Read full review »
The Best Movie Of All Time
Somewhere in time is the best movie of all time. You really have to love a movie to be able to sit through it more than 50 times without once getting bored. This is probably the only movie that I have ever enjoyed that much and YES, I have seen it more than 50 times. The first thing it has going... Read full review »
LET ME TRY TO EXPLAIN, NOT THE PLOT, BUT THE YEARNING....
There have been a lot of opinions written about this movie. There have been ample to explain to all of us what the general plot is all about. Still, I believe that the complete drawing in of the viewer to a man's inability to live without his new found love, is so strong that it needs to be truly... Read full review »
A Timeless Love Story
Of all the movies I have seen that have involved romance, I think "Somewhere In Time" would be one of my favorites. It is truly a love story that bridges the gap of time, and causes the watcher to be entranced by the spell of true love that not even time itself could break. This is one of those...

A timeless movie...
This movie is terrific. Bottom line. Christopher Reeve and Jane Seymour are wonderful and have excellent chemistry together.
"Somewhere in Time" is unfortunately one of the most underrated movies of our time. So much work went into the production of this movie and I feel as though the...

The setting of the film was absolutely breathtaking. The acting was wonderful. You truly care about... Read full review »
Somewhere In Time: Jane Seymour at her most Heart-Stoppingly Beautiful!
A miraculous little film, which succeeds more as tone and poetry than as cinematic grandeur.
This story shows us scenes containing the most beautiful that Jane Seymour has ever been on film, and she's one beautiful lady in any movie. Here it hurts to look at her, she is so appealing.

Somewhere in Time - 20th Anniversary Edition [VHS]
It's silly, it's superficial, it's so desperately earnest about its tale of time-spanning love that you almost wish for a cheap flatulence gag just to break the solemn mood. But there's something so unabashedly gushy and entertaining about Somewhere in Time that you can't begrudge its enduring popularity. The film has become a staple of romantic-movie lovers since its release in 1980, and endless showings on cable TV have turned it into a dubious classic of sorts--a three-hanky weeper that anyone can enjoy as a guilty pleasure or a beloved favorite, with no apologies necessary. In his first film after the star-making success of Superman, Christopher Reeve stars as a contemporary playwright who visits a posh hotel and sees the portrait of an actress (Jane Seymour) who had performed there in 1912. He becomes obsessed with this beautiful woman and learns all he can about her, and then discovers a method of hypnotically transporting himself backward in time to meet her. Is it ... you? she says upon seeing the lovestruck playwright, and it's clearly a mutual attraction. But even the slightest reminder of the playwright's modern time can jar him from his seemingly real existence in the past, so his wonderful love affair is constantly just a step from being stolen away. Based on Richard Matheson's novel Bid Time Return, this flaky film may strain one's tolerance for plot holes and corny romance, but it's hard to deny its lasting appeal--and let's face it, guys, it'll make wives and girlfriends swoon if they're in a tearjerker mood. --Jeff Shannon
