Timer
Timer is a 2009 independent romantic fantasy comedy starring Emma Caufield.
Plot: What if you could know the moment when you would meet your soul-mate? In this movie, people have taken to having "Timers" implanted on their arms. If your soul-mate also has a timer, both of your timers will count down to the exact second that you lay eyes on each other.
My Take: Charming, delightful, and thought-provoking describe this movie to me. The idea that you could get an implant that would tell you not only when you meet your soul-mate, but at that moment tell you exactly who it was, is an idea that I kinda wished was real. This movie explores the idea of romantic love and its uncertainty. What do you do when your timer doesn't have a countdown? What do you do if your countdown doesn't end for 20 years? What do you do if you're 16, and your countdown ends in less than a day? All these possibilities are explored in a funny, intelligent way.
