What a good and amazing film. I thought before watched movie, it was just a science fiction movie but I was starting watch Safety not Guaranteed, I realize it was not just science fiction film, it had fantasy, romanticism, comedy and drama and real – life topic. So it is versatile movie. Music, player, cast, shooting camera was very successful. I did not watch and like, science fiction movies but it was very different from other science fiction movies and I said it had other sense like drama, comedy.
Actors and actresses are not very popular and famous but they were very successful. The story of Safety Not Guaranteed is time travel and everybody can have good idea while watching movie. I want to watch this movie in next time again and again, and I am thinking say to my friends for watching this film. If you are not watch Safety not Guaranteed, I advise you should watch immediately.

SNG was a nice little surprise. No easy task making a good movie with such a funky (and tired, as in: "time travel, again?") premise. Perfect movie? No. But great story, great acting ,great characters, great music, and great script. Anyone who's got a heart and soul and a little dream still tucked away in his back pocket will enjoy this movie.
The movie's premise, that of a guy who wants company for a "second attempt at time travel", opens up some simple yet timeless human stories of longing, redemption, love and faith. Any which way that the movie had ended, whether in failure or success for the time traveler, would have been fine. Why? Well, precisely because it's what happens in between that's important, and cool.
For "Darius", for "Jeff", for "Kenneth" and a few others, the journey through time is well, that which all of us take: no need for a machine for that. A movie truly succeeds when you actually start thinking about what's going on inside the characters' heads. Yep, this one did that for me. Genuine humor, genuine acting, balanced storytelling, hell, just see it. Unless you left your heart and your dreams up on a shelf long ago, you won't be disappointed.
Never mind those few, sad and bitter negative reviews, all of you who are not "Jeff", will get an immense kick out of this flik. Yay!!!
