We Live in Time | Rotten Tomatoes (1) Tim Cogshell FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles) A deeply moving and beautifully performed film. Nov 4, 2024 Full Review We Live in Time | Rotten Tomatoes (2) Lauren Coates Chicago Reader hough Pugh and Garfield (particularly the latter) bring intense, raw emotionality to otherwise by-the-numbers material, We Live in Time is an overall predictable addition to a strangely prevalent romantic subgenre. Nov 2, 2024 Full Review We Live in Time | Rotten Tomatoes (3) 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.
