Time Freak

Amazon Prime, Hulu

Starring: Asa Butterfield, Sophie Turner

Sean’s Synopsis: When Asa Butterfield is unceremoniously dumped by Sansa Stark, the genius college physics student decides there is only one thing to do: Create a time machine and return to all the moments that led to the demise of the relationship. Oh, and bring along his stoner best friend for comedic support.

Sean’s Verdict: This movie checked off a lot of boxes for me:

• Asa Butterfield is a British national treasure.
• Time travel is a very important component, but does not feel abused.
• Time loops and glitches were used to make me laugh, and succeeded.
• The stoner BFF is very funny.
• It’s still a rom-com!

Big win. Will watch again.
