FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
Paynbob It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
Red-125 Alle tijd (2011) is a Dutch film shown in the United States with the title Time to Spare. The movie was written and directed by Job Gosschalk.This is an interesting film, although somewhat melodramatic. Paul de Leeuw plays Maarten, a middle-aged gay man who is suffering from empty nest syndrome. In this case, the person leaving the nest is not his daughter, but his younger sister Molly (Karina Smulders). Their parents are dead, so Maarten's relationship to Molly is more like a father than a brother.The film has two plot lines. One is Molly's inability to choose between two men, both of whom she says she loves. The other is Maarten's realization that he can now have a long-term relationship with a gay man. (He didn't--and doesn't--feel comfortable living with another man when Molly is in the home.)The two actors are both excellent. It's not their fault that the plot is soggy and somewhat unbelievable. They work with what they have, and they work well. However, I thought the best actor in the movie was Lineke Rijxman as Reina, the loyal family friend that every family needs.I don't think this is a film worth seeking out. However, if you're at a film festival, and this movie is playing, it would be reasonable to walk into the theater and watch it.Time to Spare was shown at the Little Theatre as part of the exemplary ImageOut--the Rochester LGBT Film & Video Festival.
Boba_Fett1138 This at first sight already obviously is one big melodramatic movie but that doesn't always necessarily has to be a bad thing of course. There are still good melodrama's that work with all of their characters, emotions and dramatic developments but I'm afraid that this movie just isn't one of them.Before a conflict gets properly developed it gets resolved again already and a new problem for the characters arises, almost immediately after that. You also have to realize that this all happens in the time span of about 90 minutes. Far too short for all of the themes and problems that this movie wants to handle. It especially all starts to become too much in its last half hour. Because of this, all of the emotions and drama fall kind of flat. Not just within its final 30 minutes, in which everything gets wrapped up too fast and desperately but also, to some less extend, within the rest of the movie.A real shame, since the movie starts off promising enough. It looks like s skilfully made movie and also the actors give us all that they got. This movie is some real wasted potential in that regard, that never reaches the level that it was all too obviously aiming for. It was an ambitious project but in its attempts to reach its goals and the level it was aiming for it totally looses its focus. It tries to do and achieve far too much, as if the film-makers were afraid to cut some of the movie or leave some stuff out of the script. You could perhaps 'blame' it on the inexperienced director and writer Job Gosschalk, who had never directed or wrote a movie before this one. He is a good visual and actor's director but he still needs to learn how to effectively tell a story and how to make it all work out within a movie.I surprisingly enough still really liked the acting and even though the characters don't really work out on an emotional level, they still remain good characters that are also likable ones, that carry the movie. Fore the movie is one that heavily relies on all of its characters and is also filled with lots of dialog and interaction between all of the characters. Yes, even Paul de Leeuw is totally convincing in a non-comedy related role for a change.Some wasted potential.5/10http://bobafett1138.blogspot.com/
bobjrog Job Gosschalk's first film as a Director (he also wrote the script, by the way...) has worked; that we can state undoubtedly. At the same time, he could probably not have done it without the talented great cast that, from lead-actor Paul de Leeuw (Maarten) to smaller but critical roles filled by Christopher Parren (Melvin), have achieved an outstanding acting-performance. The movie starts at a low pace, inviting us to sit back and enjoy the humor and pretty faces shown on the screen. Later, and somewhat abruptly, the storyline transforms into an emotional - though still witty - plot that will appeal to those with a compassionate personality. Molly (Karina Smulders) lives with her older brother Maarten (Paul de Leeuw) and wants to move in with here boyfriend. Maarten realizes the emptiness of his existence but falls in love with another man. Molly also falls in love with another man because Teun is acting arrogant and cheats on her. Ooh, and Molly becomes sick and dies. If this is too much information, your might be right - main critique of this film would be that there are too many story lines involved...Karina Smulders reaches a career-high achievement, in view of this newspaper, when she explains, basically from her death-bed, to both Melvin and Teun (latter played by Teun Luijkx) that she does not want to know who the father is and that they should both feel responsible for her child. Paul de Leeuw plays his role, as an over-caring and over-careful brother 'playing' Molly's father due to their parents' death, credibly. Christopher Parren plays, as he did in the TV-show Single, produced by Job Gosschalk, an introvert but handsome gentleman, which should attract many teenage girls to the theater. The movie gets an 8 (if not higher) for the simple reason because it hits you. It's about people, real people, who deal with real issues. The movie is heavy and light at the same time - quite an accomplishment. If nothing more, "Alle Tijd" will make you forget about your own worries and will make you sad and happy at the same time. If that's not a reason to go to the movies, I wouldn't know what is.
