This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.
View MoreAt first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
View MoreIt is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review
View MoreThere's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.
View MoreI would really like to have this Timothy Dalton comedy on DVD. Fun, family vacation setting with two families wanting to vacation in the same location. That's when the fun begins. The house turns out to be double rented. One family is easy-going while the other is painfully straight-laced. The kids learn from each other while helping their parents see that they should be together even though they think differently. What can I say but opposites attract. This film has such witty dialogue and plays up the confusion. Timothy is superb in the cooking scene. He just plays that scene for all it's worth. I was delighted with the dance scene in the club house too. This is truly a great family comedy.
View MoreTIME SHARE is not the kind of film that will find it's way onto anyone's 'Top Ten' list, but as a light, entertaining romantic comedy, it is a pleasant diversion, and offers stars Timothy Dalton and Nastassja Kinski more 'audience friendly' roles than they've been appearing in, lately.He's a master chef/widower with devoted kids, a 'live life to the fullest' attitude, and a wicked grin; she's a botanist/divorcee with a geeky fiancé, frustrated kids, and a pent-up passion searching for an outlet. From the moment they meet, trying to squeeze their cars past one another for the last spot on a ferry to their island rental, they become both enemies and rivals, a situation that becomes even more pronounced when they discover that both families have been accidentally booked into the same summer rental. While the kids quickly bond, Dalton and Kinski simply seem to find more ways to irritate one another...although when she caresses him in the shower (thinking him to be her fiancé), she discovers him to be far more of a man than her current beau...and listening to her talk in her sleep, he learns that her aloofness hides a smoldering sexuality waiting to be released.Can True Love be far away?While a subplot of two of the children trapped on a sailboat in a storm lacks the tension to be truly effective, and Kinski's boyfriend is portrayed as so buffoonish and asexual that you wonder why she fell for him in the first place, the sexual chemistry between Dalton and Kinski is potent, and the film is romantic enough to make a good 'date movie'.For an evening's 'light' entertainment, you could do far worse than this easy-going comedy!
View MoreThis is a nice romantic comedy. It is the same league as "On the 2nd day of Christmas"; predictable and safe with some sharper humor than you might expect for a made for tv movie. The characters are more than adequate for the plot.
View MoreWhat a hideous waste of talent. Nastassja Kinski valiantly tries to do something with the script, but Timothy Dalton's try at comedy is over-the-top and pathetically schtick. And what a shame he decides to go shirtless in a few scenes. His stomach is the size of a Volkswagen Beetle. As for the kids in this film, they were better than average and like Nastassja, get an A+ for trying. The plot is as creaky as they come and utterly ridiculous, to boot. One of the worst tv movies I've seen in a long, long time.
