I liked this movie very very very much 'cuz the guy is a good person and he found out that he liked helping others even when he went back in time. May was cool too. I am still watching it so I do not know the end.I am at the part where he meets Susan and is asking about May. English movies are cool to begin with and so different than here in America. I am fascinated by time and sometimes I dream about the same stuff. Like what would happen if I was him and I went back in time? I have never ever seen a movie like this one and I am going to tell my buds about how cool this movie is. I think my family will like it, too. I hope they make more movies like this one. It is so awesome.peace STeven

Caught this on cable the other night while channel-surfing. Great time-travel movie, but more drama than sci-fi. The child actors are excellent and the story is well done and effective. Well worth your time.The little boy is excellent as he struggles to save an orphan girl and her family from Nazi bombs and an insane asylum. The premise of the story is outlandish, but is told on a small personal scale which focuses on the choices the little boy has to make in trying to do the right thing for everyone including himself.The only unbelievable part is towards the end when the mother "trusts" his son to walk off into the woods for one last "mission". Great movie, though, and clean.

I saw this film in a movie festival in Brittany, France. Somebody here said it was for children, but I'm 27, I saw it with my mother and my boyfriend when it came out, and the three of us just loved it. The story of a young boy accidentally traveling into the past, and then going back there on purpose and saving a little girl's life is absolutely brilliant, and the actors are all perfect : Charlotte Wakefield and Matthew Beard show an outstanding maturity, and Tom Wilkinson, Julie Cox and Anna Massey are also incredibly moving. After seeing this film we were all in tears, and I was thrilled tonight when it got on TV at long last... I just found out it had come out on DVD in America, so I will be able to get it and recommend it to everyone I know.

A young boy travels back in time to WWII and meets a young girl with some serious problems.Show on Swedish television as a child TV-series.I actually love this movie, it got all ingredients needed. An excellent cast, with lovely performances from Charlotte Wakefield as May and Matthew Beard as Tom. A great story that sweeps you off your feet (I have a soft spot for "but-what-happens-in-the-future-if-he-does-that-now" movies). It's the small things, the details that make this movie awesome. And even though I've seen it three times now, I still get teary eyes and all warm and cuddly inside seeing it.
