The British humour was what I have missed, probably because this was so satisfying. The entire cast was very funny. Domhnall Gleeson was the perfect underdog that everyone can get behind. He had great charm and great comedic timing, and overall very lovable. This must be his best performance yet. And he made a very nice leading man.
I haven't seen Bill Nighy in a comedy with a big-ish role. And he was very funny. Not only that, but he was sort of the anchor for all the time travelling bits.
And speaking of which, the movie took a slightly wrong turn in the middle with the time travelling. The consistency suddenly went out the window even if it was just for a short bit. But being a time travelling movie, it will always come with loopholes like this.
Nevertheless, the last part of the movie, the advice from Nighy, those last scenes with Nighy; they were very meaningful and very touching. And they almost redeemed the slight mishap earlier. Almost.
Rachel McAdams reminded me of The Notebook. Maybe because she was good, maybe because this was a very good love story. But whatever it was, she was part of the reason why this movie was so good.
And I was pleasantly surprised to see Margot Robbie and she impressed me once again, this time with her British accent. I enjoyed her performance and her character here that had a significant impact on Gleeson's character and the audience.
