Reel review: ‘frequently asked questions about time travel’.

By Anna Husted EBS Film Critic

On a typical night out at the pub, three best friends Ray (Chris O’Dowd), Toby (Marc Wootton) and Pete (Dean Lennox Kelly) accidentally invent a time-traveling device. Ray stumbles upon this invention when a pretty blonde named Cassie (Anna Farris) introduces herself as a woman from the future who has always wanted to meet the famous inventors.

The three nerds, or “imagineers” as Ray prefers to the offensive “n” word, do not believe Cassie initially, but then strange rifts in time begin to happen. In one instance, Pete returns to the pub from the bathroom and finds everyone murdered. In another, the entire town has been destroyed. Cassie’s presence has caused all hell to break lose in the future, which in turn affects the friends’ present.

Without giving away too many of the frequently asked questions, there a few typical time-travel inquiries that preoccupy the friends: What happens when you see your present self? Does traveling through time age the traveler? Can you travel back in time to before the time-traveling device was invented?

I love talking about time travel and parallel universes so I appreciate seeing it depicted in an interesting way on screen. Even more so, I love seeing time travel depicted with that British underdog sense of humor—like the friends pointing out that of course everyone in the future has an American accent; or in order to avoid seeing themselves in the present they have to hide in a tiny broom closet for what feels like days.

Another brilliant story device is that “Frequently Asked Questions About Time Travel” takes place almost entirely in one location—the pub. The movie has a glorious runtime of one hour and 23 minutes so viewers don’t get bored or exhausted by that local drinking establishment. Plus, the pub acts as a totem marker for where travelers are in time. If the men’s bathroom is in disarray you know you are in the present, but if it ceases to exist at all you are in a future you don’t want to be in.

“Frequently Asked Questions About Time Travel” is a little gem of a film made by Gareth Carrivick in 2009, his only feature film before his untimely death a year later. For me, Carrivick lives on as a great director of one highly entertaining film.

“Frequently Asked Questions About Time Travel” is witty and relatable, and makes for great discussions about the rules of time travel. It starts and ends with a bang and, as Ray says, don’t think about time travel too hard or it’ll “turn your brain into spaghetti if you let it.”

“Frequently Asked Questions About Time Travel” is now streaming on Amazon Prime.

Anna Husted has a master’s in film studies from New York University. In Big Sky she can be found at the movies at Lone Peak Cinema or hiking up a mountain. When not gazing at the silver screen or watching her new favorite TV show, she’s running, fishing or roughhousing with her cat, Indiana Jones.

The film follows two social outcasts and their cynical friend (Chris O’Dowd as Ray the imagineer, Dean Lennox Kelly as Pete the cynic, Marc Wootton as Toby the dreamer) as they attempt to navigate a time travel conundrum in the middle of a British pub.

Anna Faris plays Cassie a girl from the future who sets the adventure in motion. It was released in the UK and Ireland on 24 April 2009. On its television premiere on BBC Two on 1 August 2010, the film was dedicated to its director Gareth Carrivick, who had died earlier in the year.

As the film begins Ray (O’Dowd) has been fired from his job as a costumed guide in a theme park attraction called “Star Ride.” Ray’s good friends Pete (Kelly) and Toby (Wootton) work at the theme park restaurant and they all decide to go to a cinema and pub after they leave.

Ray meets an American girl named Cassie (Anna Faris) who claims to have a time machine built into her body and whose job is to find and repair “time leaks” and stop “editors”. Understandably, Ray’s friends have some trouble believing him.

However, they end up traveling back and forth through time within the pub. Hints about their journey appear in different time stops. They meet a second time traveller, named Millie (Meredith MacNeill). Cassie is told about Millie and is immediately suspicious, with good reason. Cassie’s time machine is taken offline and she finally meets Millie. Millie makes Toby an offer to die and be a legend which, of course, he refuses.

At the end of the movie, the three friends walk home wondering about the events in the pub when Cassie appears through a big glowing portal. She reveals that they have only fourteen hours to save the Earth (a reference to the film Flash Gordon), and urges them to go with her to a parallel universe.

Review by Dio Vayne ★★★★

I wrote a lengthy review about how this movie treats time-travel with a bit more respect than most film, but I went back in time, erased it, and wrote this crap.

Review by Silent J ★★★½

Have you ever wondered what Doctor Who (the Steven Moffat episodes) would look like with a bit of Shaun of the Dead-esque humor? Well, look no further than the FAQ About Time Travel.

I went into this not knowing anything about it other than it starred Chris O'Dowd and that it probably had some time travel. I certainly was not disappointed. If you need a little more convincing in order to check this out yourself, just know that it's about 3 friends who discover time travel in a pub. It takes it's sweet time in the beginning, admittedly, but as soon as Pete (Dean Lennox Kelly, aka the guy who played Shakespeare on Doctor Who) starts singing Total Eclipse of…

Review by {Sam G} ★★★★

I heard this randomly mentioned in a Bert Kreischer podcast and what a fucking  GEM . A British time travel comedy, somewhat in the vein of SOTD . Taking place entirely at a bar, 3 friends go on a pretty hilarious journey within said bar and I was just eating this shit up. I’m a huge fan of Chris O’Dowd from The IT Crowd and the other 2, who I wasn’t familiar with, were funny as well. This shit had me cracking up, to a point where I was excited to see where it goes, and it just kept finding creative ways to keep things moving. Anna Faris  has a fun role too. 

I couldn’t find much on this director, but Thank you Gareth Carrivick (RIP) for giving me this Cult Comedy Gem to endlessly enjoy. 8.4/10🍺

Review by JBird ★★★½

Three friends considered film geeks, Think Hollywood has gotten bleak. Since they know better, They write a letter, And are thrown into a Time Leak.

Review by 🎞️📼Spencer💿📺 ★★★

I came here for Anna Faris.

Review by Mr. DuLac ★★★½

Little bit weird, but ummm... turns out everybody in the future, American. -Ray

A time travel movie I can completely identify with. No matter what time they go to, they never leave the pub. I would get behind that plan. It's like watching a lazy Dr. Who . At one point they think that the time travel could be triggered by a series of events that include peeing while singing Total Eclipse Of The Heart . Brilliant.

Review by mrbalihai ★★★

This film is proof that Edgar Wright invented time-travel, ripped off "The World's End" from Gareth Carrivick, then gave him leukemia.

Review by Poppy Palmer ★★★★½

I had never heard of this film before and flicked it on in the middle of the night by accident. As a result, I am having difficulty deciding whether it is actually a good film or if I only immensely enjoyed it because I am a sucker for time travel.

Either way, it was funny and I bloody love a good time paradox. I feel like I connected with it on a spiritual level. These are my people.

Review by Bizon ★½

Terminally bland. Wish it was worse, just so there would be something to say about it. It went back in time and removed any impression from my brain, like it never existed.

Review by Dale Nauertz ★★★½

This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.

A group of friends, one of whom has just lost his job and is obsessed with sci-fi, accidentally discover that the restroom at their local pub is the source of a time anomaly that allows them to travel to random points in time. They find themselves encountering a potential future and trying to figure out how to make it back to their own time and fix anything they may have screwed up during their accidental time journeys.

"Frequently Asked Questions About Time" has a very British sense of humor and lots of fun with its premise. It's not quite as transcendent or exciting as it would have been in the hands of Edgar Wright, particularly, but it's still an amusing…

Review by 🇵🇱 Steve G 🇵🇸 ★★★ 2

I think I'm all burned out on time travel now.

There's been a lot of that in the last month and a bit and Frequently Asked Questions About Time Travel almost put me over my tolerance levels. But at the very least it did perhaps solve one problem, or almost solve it at least.

I was talking on Twitter recently about people I like in films who are never in anything good and the name Anna Faris was quite central to this discussion. She's a delight but she doesn't choose well, does she? I suppose now with Lost In Translation, May and this under her belt, she's just about done enough to ease herself out of that category. Only just,…

Review by John Uptergrove ★★★½

It’s seems like they tried really hard to be like an Edgar Wright movie, but didn’t quite get there. It does have its funny moments, but the plot wasn’t groundbreaking or anything and it wasn’t very memorable.

Well done Jamie Mathieson. Because in Frequently Asked Questions About Time Travel , the debut feature-length script-writer lays out a solid framework on which is hung an enjoyable, if occasionally rough-ended ‘ladventure’ doing well on a screen the film is just about worthy of. That’s a compliment more than anything though, because Mathieson’s scribbles are acted and directed by a group far more used to the demands of the box in the front-room than of filling the aisles with popcorn critics.

Director Gareth Carrivick, fresh from BBC series Beautiful People , does a commendable job of getting Ray (Chris O’Dowd), Toby (Marc Wooton) and Pete (Dean Lennox Kelly) into place, albeit predominantly in one beer-soaked setting. Meanwhile, time travelling ‘bloke’s babe’ Cassie (Anna Faris) holds enough grace and integrity in her role as the time travelling lust-after to provide an occasional, but refreshing aside to the semi-humourous goings on.

The events themselves start with a retreat to the local boozer with Ray, the ‘acceptable face of geekdom’ and best mates Toby and Pete joining to simultaneously provide their musings on life and the occasional round of drinks. If this sounds like a standard night in the pub to any of you reading this, then that’s because it is, until…wait for it…a round of drinks finds the beautiful Faris alone in the pub (isn’t that always the way?), a time leak is discovered in the gents, and adventure and hilarity equally ensue. Err, not quite, mainly because none of it is hilarious nor particularly adventurous, but actually that doesn’t much devalue the experience.

Whatever Mathieson’s intentions were for FAQ , if the humour on offer fails to tickle you, you’ll still get to witness the tidy crafting of his plot where the logistics of seemingly infinite groups of the three lads desperately trying to avoid each other are impressively achieved. You’ll also be witness to the brief, but well known rules of time travel discussed and mostly obeyed throughout, see a short but bleak view of futures inspired by beer-fuelled note-taking and putting the world to rights (a lesson to us all), and also find that you might actually enjoy – if not laugh out loud at – the film more than you would expect.

That you might not always see its funny side, nor be particularly blown away by its tidy climax, should be weighed against a coming of age of a group of mostly British actors, the spying of a debut screenwriter and a ‘you know who your mates are’ impact in the tying up by the time the credits roll.

But this is all inconsequential posted next to the title’s main concern. The challenge Frequently Asked Questions About Time Travel faces head on is that of where it finds its audience. The type of characters it depicts will no doubt be tempted by their own watering hole over a group-trip to the local multiplex, and I can’t see many girlfriends being dragged along to this as a lad’s ‘must-see’. Having said that, for the price of a couple of drinks in your local, you could be witness to a credibly accomplished story from a new writer, a now and again tale of intriguing self-avoidance, and a story of laddishness battling adversity. If that’s your tipple.
