A still from ‘The Map of Tiny Perfect Things’
Director Ian Samuels concocts a delicate dance of delightful little moments, which have you rooting for the couple
What a lovely movie this is! I have a weakness for time-bending movies Shrodinger’s cat speaks to me on a quantum level. When we first meet Mark (Kyle Allen), he seems to be one step ahead of everything and everyone. He finishes his father’s (Josh Hamilton) crossword, saves a mug just as it is falling off the table, rescues a lady from a wardrobe malfunction and a girl, Phoebe (Anna Mikami), from a beach ball, and hangs out with his friend, Henry (Jermaine Harris) as he gets killed in a videogame instead of going to his sister, Emma’s (Cleo Fraser) football game.

Ian Samuels adapts Lev Grossman s time-loop teen romance in an Amazon film starring Kyle Allen and Kathryn Newton.
The time-loop genre is old and diverse enough now I ve reviewed around a dozen, and I m sure I ve missed several that there s no need to describe each new entrant as like
Groundhog Day. There s the
Edge of Tomorrow-like sci-fi action loop; the

Before we’re even out of the opening credits of “The Map of Tiny Perfect Things,” director Ian Samuels and screenwriter Lev Grossman waste no time clueing us into its premise revolving around a time loop that will teach its teen protagonists to accept life’s little gifts and major detours. This John Green-lite fantasy for the young-adult crowd holds many sequences that sparkle and shine, but a few that stumble and sag as well. Yet the feature’s genteel, sweet spirit and radiant lead performances rescue it from forgettable mediocrity
