As Time Goes By

About This Movie

As Time Goes By is this quirky mix of comedy and sci-fi that really stands out from the late '80s. You’ve got a surfer, right? And he's dropped in the Australian Outback, which sets up a pretty wild premise. The alien character is memorable, especially with that time-traveling ship that looks like a diner from the '50s—really adds a unique vibe. The pacing has that offbeat charm; it’s not rushed but keeps you engaged with the absurdity of the time paradox he’s trying to fix. The performances have this laid-back quality, which fits the surfer dude perfectly. The practical effects are somewhat charmingly dated but give it a real tactile feel that’s often missing in today’s CGI-heavy films. It's just a fun ride through time and space.
