Summary: Excellent concept - poor acting
Comment: I love the thought behind this movie. Don't get caught up in the overanalysis of whether it could actually happen. Sit back and enjoy the movie as entertainment. Just too bad Christopher Reeves was cast as the lead. He couldn't act his way out of a paper bag. A more accomplished actor and this would be a 5 star movie.

Summary: Beautiful period piece, but dreadful in every other way
Comment: I am a big fan of Jane's work in Dr. Quinn, and I finally
saw SIT on Netflix instant viewing. Although the historical
atmosphere is beautifully evoked, this was a perfectly terrible
film on every other level. The story is simplistic but I
could overlook all that if it at least hung together. But
the many unanswered questions (like the watch, what did
it symbolize; was the Richard who registered in 1912 the
same one in 1978 or was it a name coincidence) ruin even
this oversimplified story. Jane was lovely too look at
but her dialogue was very stilted. A big dissapointment after
all the hype I have read on the blogosphere. I recommend
Dr. Quinn for much more convincing on-screen romance.

Summary: If Stephen King Did Romance
Comment: If Stephen King, the master of horror and suspense, would ever delve into the world of romance, I suspect that this would be the kind of film he would make.
By combining a Titanic-like romance with a time-travel angle usually reserved for science fiction, this film is unique right from the start. Instead of boring viewers with time-travel technobabble explanations, though, "Somewhere In Time" uses it only as a plot device, not the MAIN event. Essentially, the core of the movie has very little to do with time-travel...time-travel is only the vehicle through which the story can come forward.
I will not reveal any plot details, so as not to spoil your experience with this film, but the plot is very engaging. It will have romantics reaching for the tissue box and less-romantic viewers marveling at the subtle plot nuances.
The acting in this film is also terrific. Christopher Reeve is spot-on as a "normal guy" (much like his Clark Kent of "Superman" fame) who does his best under abnormal circumstances, while Jane Seymour is the epitome of classical beauty.
Overall, this is a film that everyone can enjoy. Women will be wooed by the romance and the handsomeness of Reeve, while men can relate to Reeve's "everyman" character and be fascinated by the time-travel angle. This is a perfect date movie that will leave everyone happy!
