Time Travel Is Dangerous
The moment we clapped eyes on the first trailer for Time Travel Is Dangerous, we knew we were in for something special. Blending the charming, grounded sensibility of a classic British comedy with the mind-bending chaos of a high-concept sci-fi flick, this film promises a riotous journey through time and space. The premise is as delightfully simple as it is genius: best friends Ruth and Megan, the co-owners of a quaint vintage shop in Muswell Hill, stumble upon a time machine. Their initial, seemingly harmless plan? To pop back to bygone eras and stock their shelves with authentic retro goodies. What could possibly go wrong?
As the trailer unfolds, the answer quickly becomes "absolutely everything." The footage is a masterclass in escalating stakes, starting with light-hearted escapades as the duo nab everything from disco fashion to pre-loved furniture. But the smiles soon fade as the trailer’s tone shifts. We get tantalising glimpses of the "irreparable damage" their actions are causing to the fabric of the universe—a jarring flash of a London street that's not quite right, a peculiar historical anomaly, a look of growing panic on Ruth's and Megan's faces. The humour is still there, but it's now underpinned by a thrilling sense of urgency and consequence.
The trailer is paced perfectly, cutting between laugh-out-loud moments of temporal mischief and genuinely tense, dramatic shots. The visual effects, from the machine's shimmering portals to the subtle, disorienting shifts in reality, look sharp and convincing. It's a testament to the film’s clever direction that it can transition so effortlessly from a feel-good caper to a thrilling sci-fi adventure in just two minutes. We get a real feel for the fantastic chemistry between the two leads, their bond a relatable anchor amidst the unfolding cosmic chaos.
In a year of blockbusters and sequels, Time Travel Is Dangerous feels like a breath of fresh air—a witty, character-driven story that asks big questions while never losing its sense of fun. It’s a trailer that leaves you desperate to see what happens next. Don't be late for this unmissable cinematic trip. Time Travel Is Dangerous will be available on Digital Download from 29th September.
