Somewhere in Time is the most romantic movie of all time. The story is very touching. Starring Christopher Reeve and Jane Seymour. In the movie, the picture of Jane Seymour is the most beautiful picture ever taken, I do not believe there is another p...icture of a woman can be as pretty. The music composed by John Barry is very passionate and the music by Rachmaninov "18th variation of the Rhapsodie on a Theme by Paganini" is just unforgettable. Plus, the Grand Hotel and the view in Michigan's Mackinac Island, this become a movie with great picture, music, plot and actor. I highly recommend this movie to everyone. Read more Less

One of my all-time favorite movies

There is no one I KNOW who has seen this movie who did not love it. The scenery, the costumes, the music were excellent and beautifully done. Even my (now ex) husband, who never liked those kind of movies, loved it. I have seen it countless times, ha...ve it on video, have the soundtrack, and have read the book Bid Time Return. I have even written to Richard Matheson, the author...and he wrote back...several times! When I first realized that in the picture of Elise that Richard fell in love with, she IS looking at HIM, it brought tears to my eyes...and still does. Definitely worth seeing...over and over again.

A film worth watching

One of the few love stories that lacks the routine theme in so many, keeps the story going...a classic must see unheard of by many but to those who have seen it memorable.

My favorite movie of all time!

I love this movie! I watch it at least twice a month. The music is beautiful, the clothing is beautiful, everything about this movie is beautiful. The acting is excellent. I am so in love with this movie that I am exploring the possibility of going t...o Mackinac Island to stay at the Grand Hotel. I am also planning on joing the fan club. If you have never seen this movie, rent it today, you will love it. A true classic! Read more Less

Somewhere in Time

By Yahoo! Shopping User  Oct 30, 2000 | 1 out of 1 found this Somewhere in Time (1980) review helpful

A rare classic romance story set between two time eras scored with incredible music by Rachmaninov and Roger Williams. Portrays fantasy as real-life, captures and holds the viewer in an entranced state of awe. Perfectly cast with Jane Seymour and Ch...ristopher Reeve in the lead roles, perfect shooting location at the Grand Hotel. Great date movie...in fact, probably the best one around. Brings males to tears...it's intense. The absolute right combination of everything...highly underrated, but a labor of love nonetheless. Watch it...you'll understand...and feel what it is like to be in love again. Read more Less

Absolutely Captivating!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jun 15, 2006

Pros: This Film is a 10+ because of the Sto'ry line and Chemistry between Jane Seymour and Christopher

Cons: There absolutely nothing negative about this Film!!!!!!!!!!!!

I had also seen this wonderful film when it first came out in 1980, it is a travesty that this movie was not publicised right in order to get the pubicity it needed to make sure everyone new about it. I had forgotten about this movie for years after... I had seen it until I was with a friend of mine whom is piano teacher is Diabetic and I was at her house helping her when she asked me to listen to a piece of music she had. She told me to turn around while she played it because she did not want me to see the name of the music so, I obliged her and turned around while she played the theme music for the movie of Somewhere in Time. She had just started playing it and didn't get half way through the music when I shrieked with a thrill because I knew what she was playing and my friend freaked out. I said oh my gosh!!! Your playing the theme music for the film of "Somewhere in Time"!!! She said how do you know that this is the music that was played for this movie and I said because I saw the movie!!! My interest in the movie was re-ingnited and another friend of mine asked me to house sit for me and I was looking through some of the movies she had and saw that she had the VHS and I couldn't resist so I took it down and watched it again. I started getting on the internet looking for the movie and finally purchased it on DVD so now I own this Fabulous Film. If you have not seen this wonderful movie I urge you to rent it and see it, it is so worth it and I garauntee that you also will end up purchasing it. I am going to try to find 2 different movie posters that came out when the movie was ready to go to the theatres. I love this movie so much and both Christopher Reeve and Jane Seymour pull off the scenes with real chemistry and made this movie so believable about the love that the 2 characters ended up sharing. The chemistry in the movie was so strong that you might believe that the actors themselves were actually in a real relationship themselves. Even though I have said this much, this movie is "INDESCRIBABLY WONDERFUL"!!!!!!!!!!
!!!! It just gives you this feeling of admiration and this feeling is also indescribable. Go rent the movie it is so worth the money you'll pay to see it!! Read more Less

Excellent love story

By Yahoo! Shopping User  Nov 27, 2005

Pros: A bit lengthy

Cons: Excellent built to plot of story

I grew up in Michigan and have always been a big fan of any Christopher Reeve film. Just knowing the fact that this was filmed on Mackinaw Island in northern Michigan was an extra bonus, seeing as I'm already a fan of his. This story is very hear...t-felt, touching, funny at times.. but most of all, breath-taking. If you haven't seen it, I highly recommend it. Read more Less
