I hated WE LIVE IN TIME, a movie whose plot is scrambled for no reason, uses cancer the way BENNY & JOON used mental illness and is not-so-secretly promoting views on women that were stale and old when Spencer Tracy was chastising Kate Hepburn for wanting to be her own woman in their movies.

The talented duo of Andrew Garfield and Florence Pugh might have made this film work had they been able to build romantic momentum, but the scrambled sequencing leaves them stranded.
