AUDIENCE SCORE
Critic Consensus: With the three principal actors clearly having fun with their roles, Time After Time becomes an amusing, light-hearted fantasy lark.

Critic Reviews for Time After Time
All Critics (31) | Top Critics (7) | Fresh (27) | Rotten (4) | DVD (3)
Such a scrambling of fact, fiction and imagination in itself deserves back-patting and, for the most part, the rendering is as delightful as the basic idea.
A delightful, entertaining trifle of a film that shows both the possibilities and limitations of taking liberties with literature and history.
Clever and well calculated.
After nearly two hours the tension has evaporated, and all that's left is a curdle of jokes and brutality.
A movie that's as sweet as it is clever, and never so clever that it forgets to be entertaining.
Terrific little time-travel romantic thriller with three outstanding performances.
Audience Reviews for Time After Time
This is my favourite of all the Jack the Ripper theory themed movies. It has a bunch of good actors, and the story is good, and it's a great adventure too.

Take a barrel of monkeys, multiple that by pi and you'll have an idea of how fun this movie is. HG Wells allows Jack the Ripper to escape in time through the use of his time machine, so naturally HG follows him to 1979 in order to capture him. Surprisingly funny and light hearted for a movie of it's body count.
