Please go and watch See You Yesterday on Netflix. It is beautiful and heartbreaking. And currently my only hope in life is for it to get a sequel.

^^^ CJ and Sebastian are best friends who invent TIME TRAVEL because they are SERIOUSLY SMART. I don’t know how to summarise this without sounding like a review tagline, but they attempt to tamper with the timeline to prevent a tragic event, and it goes... wrong... you just need to WATCH IT PLEASE

Netflix is doing a movie about two black kids who time travel to try and stop cops from murdering an unarmed black person? And it’s produced by Spike Lee with a young black Director (Stefon Bristol) at the helm? I’m so in! 👍🏾👍🏾

A Viewer’s Review of...

I initially watched this film for one reason - because it was a time-travel movie with black people in it. Ever since seeing Black Panther, I was made consciously aware of just how many movies don’t have black actors, and I wanted to expand my horizons. Since I like sci-fi, I figured that this would be a fun little dip into more racially diverse films, and I was lucky in finding out that this was yet another afrofuturist piece. Unfortunately, the film is a little inconsistent, so I was left feeling a little underwhelmed, but I don't think that sentiment alone summarizes this movie and its impact.

Don't get me wrong, the director and writer of this can make an amazing family adventure movie, and I've seen how well he can put together a "street drama" about race and community. Unfortunately, the reason I've seen that is because he tried to do both at the same time in this film. Whilst both of those elements separately are done perfect, this film puts the two together, and as a result struggles to portray a clear tone. See, the idea behind this film is that a young black girl named CJ, and her friend Sebastian, develop time travel. At the beginning of the film, CJ has perfected the principles, but the actual time machine (two backpacks that can open up a wormhole) still need tweaking in order to actually go through time. They manage to achieve a successful trip, but one week later, CJ's older brother is unjustly shot by police in a scene which was painfully accurate to the real world.

And this is where the tonal issues come in. When the two friends are building their "Temporal Relocation Packs" or taking supplies from the school laboratory, or travelling through wormholes, this film is brightly lit with technobabbled dialogue and the props look over-designed with goofy bulk or lights, with exaggerated caricatures and a bombastic score. But then they walk through the streets of a Bronx neighbourhood and are confronted by police, or they have a quiet heart-to-heart at home with family members, we're given low-lighting or soft lighting, no score, long takes and a focus on character and dialogue.

Perhaps this was a stylistic choice, but it feels like you could cut the transition between these two modes with a knife, which is a tragedy, since this is a coherent story with a solid idea at its core, but this style makes it feel less cohesive. I mean, in time travel movies we've seen before - with white people - we fly to the far-off future to save later generations, or we slip into the distant past to save our predecessors; meanwhile, in this film, a black girl travels back a single day, because 24 hours ago police shot her brother. That is so real, it hurts. That is the basis of the movie - if a black person could change the past, could they go back and stop police brutality from happening? For that reason, I feel like this is a movie that needed to be made - and perhaps that's why there's such a tonal whiplash for this film. It's taking a premise that we've used in kid-friendly family movies, and saying, what if you could stop black teenagers from dying?

And this movie sees just how potent the idea is. Early on the movie CJ talks to her science teacher, Mister Lockhart (played by Michael J. Fox in a perfect little cameo that proves he is still a great actor despite his disease), and he says that the science of time travel is ultimately secondary, since CJ should be considering the philosophy and ethics of time travel, about the responsibility that power endows. Actually, I need to take a moment to celebrate all the great actors in this film. Eden Duncan-Smith plays CJ, the beautiful and brilliant young scientist, whose single-mindedness manifests as both determination and stubbornness. Her friend Sebastian is acted by Dante Crichlow, and he has amazing chemistry with CJ, and although he is usually her co-conspirator, he can be the conscience that she is overlooking when she needs that. In my opinion, the breakout performance has to be Jonathan Nieves who plays Eduardo, a Colombian boy who is awkwardly enamoured with CJ, and although he is just the comedic relief he owns every scene he is in.

These actors are amazing, this story is amazing, the cinematography is amazing and this director is amazing... but, unfortunately, there are a few issues that let this film down. Of course, the major one is that choice to shift between genre styles. Perhaps it was a stylistic choice, but it doesn't help the theme and could be distracting during some core moments of this film. As well, probably because my suspension of disbelief was already damaged, I was distracted by how cheap some of the props were. The time machines, although they did create a practical "machine", they put them in backpacks, meaning that in most shots it just looks like two backpacks with a clear tube sticking out of it - and that was distracting, since despite this being a "prototype time machine", they built... two; there is also a prop which is meant to be advanced circuitry, but looks exactly like someone spray-painted a motherboard gold and screwed a perspex plate onto it, & most distracting (to me, at least) whenever they time travel, the kids wear goggles which, for no reason, have a steampunk aesthetic. These kids are supposedly scraping together bits and pieces to make these things, yet waste money for protective goggles on cosplay?

This film won't win any awards - and not just because most of those award shows are racially biased -  but when this film works, it works. When it was trying to be funny, I laughed; when it was trying to be endearing, I smiled; when it was trying to be sombre, I felt sad & when it was trying to tell me something, I listened. That's what I want from my movies, so although this film doesn't get the best score, I still think you should see it. Did I mention that it's on Netflix (at time of writing)? It's not perfect, but it's better than expected.

Where have all the Black Lives gone... - 6.5 ⁄₁₀

See You Yesterday

Dir. Stefon Bristol; Wri. Fredrica Bailey & Stefon Bristol

I watched this a while ago and somehow forgot I had, which actually isn’t a reflection of the contents of the film. The only reason I watched this was because of the enticingly contrary scores on IMDb between the audience and the critics for what looked like just another meh Netflix film too.

Eden Duncan-Smith saves this film I reckon. She should/will be big. The concept of a social commentary using time travel, in this context, seemed novel to me. It’s short enough to not outstay it’s welcome meaning it left me smiling. Not grinning, smiling.

I’m not gonna lie, I can't really remember anything else to mention about it, which I guess infers it’s not some hidden masterpiece. But, I do struggle to match the 5/10 it has online with the film I saw. It seemed charmingly harmless. If this seems dismissive of the film though I do not mean it to be; anyone who can make a film at all I commend wholeheartedly, let alone one that is actually entertaining.
