Leave your thoughts about Second Time Around.
| Sacramento BeeJoe BaltakeVera's three actors -- Mollà, Gil and Bardem -- excel in insightful, empathetic performances. |
| Chicago TribunePatrick Z. McGavinExtremely well acted by the four primary actors, this is a seriously intended movie that is not easily forgotten. |
| Dallas Morning NewsCharles EalyTell yourself it's OK to be jealous. Go ahead and mock poor Alberto. |
| User ReviewDanielle DThis is a strange mix of genres that you do sometimes see a lot of in Hong Kong films. It's partly a romantic comedy, but also more serious than that as well. The end and beginning are fairly serious, the middle is extremely funny in spots, almost slapstick. This movie is entertaining enough to keep your interest with a nice mix of action, drama, romance, and a bit of science fiction. |
| User Reviewalan jI love this movie..ekin and cecilia have great chemistry...interesting time travel theme done well...romanitc fare with bit of drama and action thrown in..enjoyable to watch;) |
| User ReviewWS WAlmost shockingly zane-free Jeff Lau epic featuring charming leads Ekin Cheng and Cecilia Cheung with California as a calculatedly exotic, but essentially unneccessary, geographical backdrop. The time-travel themed screenplay seemingly begs to be mistreaded and abused in the usual Lau fashion by insertion of endless parodies and incomprehensible spontaneous comedy, but Lau keeps things cool, sticking to the weird but strangely consequent elliptical narrative and focusing on the star quality of the actors and the romantic potential of Cheng's and Cheung's odd couple. |
| User ReviewZachary LA romantic time travel movie that gets a little messy and cheap at times. Ekin plays the title role as a gambler who loses it all but thanks to some mysterious stones gets sent back in time. Once he realizes he is back to 2 days ago before the big Vegas trip he can try to fix everything including returning the money, saving his best friend's life, revenge on the ex-gf, and falling in love with Cheung. The film doesn't dwell too much into the time travel aspect, it's just a plot device to advance the story and draw the characters together, so I wouldn't call this a "sci-fi fantasy" really like the summary above. Not too bad as Ekin plays the typical loner anti-hero but the falling for Cheung comes slowly and in a well thought out manner. A dabbling of gambling action which comes at the end makes for a nice culmination of the movie. Nothing special but okay to pass the time. |
| User ReviewBenedict LThe plot concept derives from Back to the Future. Average acting except with the good supporting act by Jonathan that makes the film more lively and funny. |
