What people are saying
- Gimlyโ 5/10
I've never seen anything exactly like FAQ About Time Travel before, but I've seen most of its elements either done before its release, or done better since. I wouldn't go so far as to say that I'm a fan of Chris O'Dowd or Anna Farris, but I certainly don't mind them, (the other players in this I'm not too familiar with), but nobody was particularly good. The story is mixed. The visual quality is pretty low. All in all, Frequently Asked Questions About Time Travel is just barely fine. Final rating:โ โ ยฝ - Had a lot that appealed to me, didnโt quite work as a whole.
