This movie was a lot of fun to watch. I also appreciated the examination of the seventies from an outside point of view ( the future ). However, the people acted in ways I couldn't possibly relate to. There were also gags that were way too silly.

I thought I liked time travel movies, and I thought I liked the 1970's. Ugh. I get the feeling Lucas Reiner got a video camera for his birthday from his dad or granddad (yes, Rob and Carl Reiner, you guessed it) and they agreed to produce this thin plotted, half-baked attempt to do a tribute to the 70's. Most of it makes no sense, and it doesn't even capture the 1970's spirit well. I sure hope the band Red Kross has split up!!! The only reason I gave this a half star was for David Cassidy, a 70's icon (who is a mediocre actor, and even so, very under utilized), and a handful of brief ALMOST funny moments, such as when time traveler Cassidy sees himself on a Partridge Family lunchbox. Lucas Reiner, I hope you made this film to pay your way through law school or something, because apparently film talent occasionally skips a generation.
