What are critics saying?
I'm not sure yet if Time is a masterwork, a deranged folly or just a showman's highly persuasive trick. Whatever else it is, it's a clean, economical and handsome film, terrifically acted, with a heart full of treachery and mystery.
Script is sometimes confusingly structured, and in its second half doesn't move as smoothly from scene to scene as in Kim's best pics.
Time is more than reasonably diverting.
ReelViews by James Berardinelli
Haunting and disturbing, Time is the kind of motion picture that gets under your skin and doesn't let go.
An uncanny and thoroughly creepy nip-yuck nightmare about plastic surgery and identity.
Chicago Tribune by Michael Phillips
Kim evokes everything from "Seconds" to "Nip/Tuck" here, but his sureness of touch and lack of melodrama make the themes pertinent and vivid. A heartening step up from Kim's previous film, "The Bow."
Viewers in Gotham will be perplexed, frightened, disgusted - and, mostly, entertained.
