The Present

This is a comedic family drama fantasy about a couple with 3 kids who are on the verge of their separation. With the help of the old magical grandfather clock, their kids trying to stop their parents from separating. The movie showed the story from many points of view. Every time they rewind the day, it started from somebody else's point of view. And it gave the audience a chance to understand and relate to all of the family members. This is a funny, touching and beautiful family movie. I recommend this one to watch with your family. The acting is decent, the story is good, and it has a decent ending.

The present is a comedy and family movie. There is nothing bad in it and I think its a good movie for a bank holiday weekend. Greg kinnear and isla fisher in my opinion work as a couple. They are both fun actors and im glad they were chosen here. But there is a problem. Jen and eric are getting D. I. V. O. R. C. E. D AND want to tell their children. Theres a grandfather clock that appears for some unknown reason and son tyler thinks he can fix the thing. With the help of his each a sketch he finds it helps him travel through time and with that knowlarge he tries to stop it happening.siblings emma and max also get ropped in and the threesome do their best to make everything turn out well. This movie was a lot of fun . The cast chemistry worked well and its a family movie that was just a nice watch.

Not every plot twist will make sense in this family version of Groundhog Day. So the basic premise is not original. I've learned long ago that originality is not all that important. What matters is the fact that we've got very good roles written down for a cast who knows how to deliver when they have a very good role written for them. And it works - we quickly learn to care for this dysfunctional family, and since we care we stay through to the end. Pacing is just quick enough so we don't notice the bits that make less sense, and if we do notice, as I already said - it doesn't really matter. It's not a masterpiece, it doesn't pretend it is. It's what my title said - a well-done fun movie. If that's what you're looking for, you'll get it here.

Dysfunctional family is about to break up and an old antique clock arrives that changes everything. The youngest boy who refuses to be touched or speak (easiest part for any actor) fixes the clock and discovers it can reset the day about 12 hours earlier. He goes about trying different time paradoxes to attempt to keep his parents from splitting up. A lot of goofiness and just plain weird encounters with other people who have their own agendas. Kind of a strange, can be very confusing as the time resets so many times during the movie till they finally get it right. Nothing questionable, no nudity a few foul language words but not much. An "ok" watch but didn't keep me interested as much as other films of this genre. Ok for all family members. Enjoy!
