I watched a movie last night that was pretty darn good. It made me THINK, which is always nice, but I only recommend it if you
like STORIES instead of just blowing things up and awesome special
effects.
I went down to the local RedBox and got "About Time".
I have to admit to liking the idea of time travel, so this movie
was an easy choice. It's English, so it is a little odd to us here in
the States, but some of us can appreciate the differences.
The story is about this man whose family has a secret gift - the
men can travel through time! This brings up a bunch of questions that
the guy's father answers the best he can. What follows is a nice series
of episodes that involve his returning to the past as a do-over. Imagine
if you could just have a rehearsal to life! One run-though, and then
the NEXT time would count... Hmmmm....
The obvious question that comes up is, what would YOU do if you
could travel back through your lifetime? Would you change anything or
just relive it as it unfolded? It's an interesting thought....
Most people would probably think of money first, but that's before
you think of all the important things you could accomplish. People's
lives could be enriched, pain could be lessened, and unimaginable numbers
of ways to make the world a little better place to live. Memories can be
experienced again, people who have passed can be treasured, great days
can be appreciated, even more....
