    • Roger Ebert

      The movie surrounds its love story with such boring mumbo jumbo about time travel that we finally just dont care. ( Read More )
    • Variety Staff

      A charming, witty, passionate romantic drama about a love transcending space and time, Somewhere In Time is an old fashioned film in the best sense of that term. ( Read More )
    • Jeannot Szwarc does well in the directors chair, and Jean Pierre Dorleac (brother of Francoise) deserves special commendation for his costumes. But Seymour is given too little to do, and Reeve does too much. ( Read More )
    • Vincent Canby

      The otel and Mackinac are spectacularly lovely, but fail to give substance to this ephemeral endeavor. ( Read More )
    • Dave Kehr

      Director Jeannot Szwarc strains hard for spectacular visual effects, though hes barely able to compose a competent close up. ( Read More )
