…the writer, director and star of Timestalkers, Alice Lowe, is a comic talent to watch; her debut is huge of scope and wide of imagination, and she’s always willing to go for self-deprecating laughs…

| Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 14, 2025

Lowe packs a ton of messaging into a very tightly wound package from patriarchy to feminism and fate to free will. It works more than not.

| Original Score: 6/10 | Feb 14, 2025

Timestalker is a clever idea in need of some substance.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Feb 14, 2025

The result is a film that feels undeniably human, even as it spirals into absurdity.

| Jan 31, 2025

A rollicking, risk-taking and deftly funny subversion of fairytale romance, Timestalker shows off Lowe’s admirable ambition

| Jan 1, 2025

Lowe creates a smart, unexpected endeavor in the offering, continuing her directorial experimentation and excellence.

| Original Score: B+ | Dec 24, 2024

The ensemble is game for the wacky story, and Lowe gets the most out of the crew. While some aspects of Timestalker could use tidying, it’s still a very impressive step for Lowe.

| Original Score: 7/10 | Dec 21, 2024

Timestalker is a demented romp through romance with a sense of humor so sharp that of course there's gushing blood.

| Dec 20, 2024

But while there’s no denying the ambition of the film, the execution falls short. Lowe tends to work in a deadpan register... But too many of the jokes here are dead on arrival.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Dec 4, 2024

Picture Sally Potter’s Orlando repurposed as a Blackadder special.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Nov 25, 2024

Prevenge director Alice Lowe's second feature is a time-travelling hoot.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Nov 25, 2024

Inventive and subversive, this cautionary fable on erotomania is a comedy for the ages.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Nov 21, 2024

The result is an enjoyably silly journey, scattered with surreal one-liners and memorable set pieces.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Nov 19, 2024

With great performances from the cast, enjoyable comedy and an atmospheric soundtrack as well, there is something enticing about Timestalker that sets it apart from other comedic historical sci-fic rom-coms.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Oct 24, 2024

It’s a fun premise, but Lowe’s follow-up to her deliciously nasty 2016 debut, Prevenge, is disappointingly underpowered and slapdash.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 14, 2024

... The film nevertheless delivers caustic comment on the eternal return of Mr Wrong.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Oct 14, 2024

As arcane and silly as it is quietly moving, the film ricochets madly across multiple timeframes...

| Original Score: 4/5 | Oct 14, 2024

Timestalker is totally -- and delightfully -- bonkers right from its first scene.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Oct 11, 2024

Lowe lets all these ideas brew in a frothy, funny, pastel-tinged concoction.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Oct 11, 2024

Timestalker feels like a scratchy outline for a film that Lowe didn’t get round to making. Never mind, there’s always the next life.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 11, 2024
