Linbeymusol Wonderful character development!
Ceticultsot Beautiful, moving film.
InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
Fluke_Skywalker Plot; During an atmospheric anomaly, a man finds that he is able to communicate w/his Father 30 years in the past via a ham radio.Like so many movies that deal w/altering the past, there are a host of logical faults and a truckload of bad science here, but I'm a forgiving sort of they're in the service of a compelling story, and for the most part that's true here. There's a domino effect to a decision that one of our characters makes that sends the story into a reasonably compelling, tense, if not quite taut, thriller direction. But what holds it together is the relationship and the performances of the two leads (Dennis Quaid and Jim Caviezel). Despite their interactions coming across the ages, theirs is a bond that feels real, and as a result I cared, even when the flaws in the story might have otherwise made me not.
info-29737 Wow everyone! where to begin.. I just watched this movie and I really enjoyed it. It is deep and really touching. If you like movies about time-travel you will also love this. I think the actors and crew did such an amazing job on this movie. You must see it! This movie reminded me of my grandfather also, who was a HAM operator in '69. Normally I am always telling myself I should write a review about Movie Y or X but this movies was SO good that I had to go right to IMDb and write an honest review.I also have a background with HAM Radio so I think that this is part of the reason I like this movie so much. It makes me think about this in reality also. With Auroras in real-life it is possible to cover super-long distances. It's nice that this movie didn't fell like your typical scifi movie and felt natural. Of course it's a movie but this one felt quite possible which made it seem very real and touching.I will stop writing now, just watch it and don't forget to share your rating afterwords.
Johan Dondokambey The story really nicely combines two distanced elements of contemporary movie. It has a very focused family element, especially in the form of fatherhood. The time travel element is also really nice. It has no real time travel since the the difference is only crossed by the radio chat between the characters. The movie treats the time travel element by keeping its mystery at the beginning but then take the focus away from the time travel mystery after the first history change with Frank not dying. Since then it's all about the fatherhood. The acting overall is quite good. Dennis Quaid played the father quite well that he expresses the right emotions on his scenes. Jim Caviezel played also quite well in expressing all those memory change.
alyasabila Ever since I saw the Frequencies, I started to search if there possibly is same kind of movie then I found this. This one has the same title—almost, with better rating on IMDb. I didn't download it as I did to Frequencies, I watched it on HBO yesterday.Formerly, I was confused of how it was filmed. But then I realized if it wasn't executed like that, it may not be as thrilling as it is. The idea of the movie is pretty original, time-traveler. How could just an old radio connecting two people from afar, 1969 and 1999, father (who just died) and his amazing son. How the son wants to change his life by simply talking to his old father. How the son loves his father that he would like to change their—family pasts to be gathered back. It's a pure fantasy of father-and-son relation that makes my tears slowly down from the two of my eyes.
