I'm in the middle of this movie. I really like it. Clicked it because it had Rachel McAdams and a 7.8 on IMDB. Then it surprised me with a Margot Robbie appearance and a main character that reminds me of myself.

It could all be down hill from here, but McAdams looks as gorgeous as ever.

The last 10 minutes are the best. It's truly a great movie imo. Was criminally over looked by most. The trailers did it an injustice, made it look like a romance with a hint of comedy. When really it's a coming of age story, and about a sons relationship with his father. Which most movies get horribly wrong, and this one nailed. I'm extremely close with my father, and he is having a ton of health issues at the moment. This movie had me crying a fair amount at the end. They did such an excellent job of portraying what a good relationship between father and son looks like. Hit me right in the feels, hard.

Unfortunately, my dad sucks at showing emotion and love, so I couldn't super relate in my own life. But damn did this movie make me want to be a dad myself.

It probably feels like we have ruined the whole movie, but it is about so much that it really can't be spoiled.

Really great movie. Hits all of the right notes at the right times. My SO had seen a few scenes of it and convinced me to sit down and watch it with her one night. Incredible film. Far deeper and more emotional than your average romantic slop. It goes in a special category of romantic movies I actually enjoy along with "Love Actually", "When Harry Met Sally", and "Jersey Shore Shark Attack" (a true love story if there ever was one. )

I really wish Bill Nighy would get more recognition here in the states. He is one of my favorite actors.

About Time is fricking great also.

Bill Nighy is hilarious in Love Actually.

My favorite movie of all time along with IAWL and Groundhog Day.

Amazing thing is the guy that made it doesn't even have kids, but he was able to convey "it" better than any movie I've ever seen.

My wife and I cried multiple times watching this movie. I love it dearly.
