I'll be the first to admit I was a little apprehensive when the invitation to catch About Time from those lovely folks at Universal popped up in my email. I really haven't enjoyed too many romantic comedy/dramas in my lifetime. I always find them terribly cliched and predictable with horribly unrealistic characters. Sure there's exceptions. Ruby Sparks and 500 Days of Summer spring to mind.
This one did have a few points in it's favour though. I love British humour and I really love some Bill Nighy. I'll see that man in anything. Writer/director Richard Curtis is responsible for Four Weddings and a Funeral, Love Actually and Blackadder all of which I am a big fan of. So I went a long still apprehensive but with an open mind.
What I saw exceeded all expectations
