We Live in Time | Rotten Tomatoes (1) Odie Henderson Boston Globe For every “Pulp Fiction,” a film that reordered itself successfully and with purpose, there’s a movie like “We Live In Time,” where the plot structure serves only to frustrate. Rated: 1.5/4 Oct 25, 2024 Full Review We Live in Time | Rotten Tomatoes (2) Max Weiss Baltimore Magazine It’s muddled and half-baked, even though the two actors give it their all and, yes, do convince us they’re an actual couple. Rated: 2/4 Oct 22, 2024 Full Review We Live in Time | Rotten Tomatoes (3) Robbie Collin Daily Telegraph (UK) But by jumbling the running order of Almut and Tobias’s relationship, Nick Payne’s screenplay deprives the audience of the simple, mushy pleasures of its conventionally sentimental arc. Rated: 1/5 Oct 21, 2024 Full Review We Live in Time | Rotten Tomatoes (4) Neal Pollack Book & Film Globe Though ‘We Live In Time’ purports to be a romantic drama about relationships and the ties that bind, many of the events that occur in the movie bear no actual resemblance to things that happen in reality. Rated: 2/5 Oct 26, 2024 Full Review We Live in Time | Rotten Tomatoes (5) Lisa Laman Culturess Fleeting and ultimately forgettable. Oct 25, 2024 Full Review We Live in Time | Rotten Tomatoes (6) Michael J. Casey Michael J. Cinema Time doesn’t seem to hold any more significance to these two than it does for anyone else. The whole movie is like that. Rated: 2/5 Oct 25, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
