A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

I've just watched this film and I was at first a little surprised by the previous comments and not looking forward to it. But to my surprise the film is played out very well and the director has an eye for telling a story which is very very rare these days. He doesn't use sudden movement of the camera or expensive effects, but old fashioned movie angles and minds eye gestures. They clearly had very little cash to splash about, but with the help of some wonderful locations and exterior landscapes he keeps us interested enough to care. The acting is OK (some better then others)but the characters you believe in from the outset. I'd normally give this type of low budget fare a 6 out of 10 but for the hard work of all concerned I have to give it a 10. Well worth seeing. His next film The Book looks interesting too.

For director Steven M. Smith's first feature film, I was very impressed with how nicely handled this story was played out. The locations are beautiful and the actors are great! Ally (played by Laura Penneycard... who also has some small resemblance's to British actress Kiera Knightley, no joke!) plays a young girl who is an inspiring photographer who happens to be drawn to this old English house she comes upon with a group of friends one day exploring. She then realizes that she has had a connection to this place..through recurring dreams she has been having often. She doesn't know what it all her dreams mean until she meets the ghost who haunts the gardens..named Emmett (played by Geoff Shaw). Emmett, a kind and humble man has been bound to spend his eternity in the gardens..is determined to find his true love that he lost many years ago when living there. Apparently, the ghost of his true love is also roaming the gardens in search of him too! Only Ally holds the secret deep down to where he might find his long lost love, the only thing is, she needs to figure it out. Through the help of the ghost Emmett, Peter the Gardner (played by Colin Bower), and various other characters and clues will she unlock the secret to Emmett's past and the mysterious connection she herself holds. Check this out if you get the chance if you like ghost stories with some mystery, twists, and a love story! The real ghost caught on film also had a sweet cameo!

It's one of those dramas that's so bad that it almost hits the point of being very funny, the script is absolutely dire, direction appalling, lighting purely armature, the only thing letting it down from a true so bad it's good feel is that the sound design is only quite bad; it adds no suspense to the story although trying hard, but doesn't at least destroy any speeches. There's continuity problems of seasons of out door shots throughout. And finally last but not least the acting is appalling. For a professional production it very much has the feel of a university media project you have to feel sorry for the sorry for anyone who had to put their names to this.

I had the good fortune to work with Steven Smith and Greenway Entertainment on Time of her Life. I thoroughly enjoyed being part of a very professional cast and crew. We are all delighted with the results. I'm sure this will be the first of many successes for Greenway entertainment. Greenway are a very hard working company with original ideas and projects in the pipeline. There is no genre they will not explore. If you enjoyed Time of her Life do look out for their next release you won't have long to wait. Steven Smith is a commendable Director he managed to put the cast at ease and obtain some fantastic results, we are sure to hear much more from him in the future. Nicole Freeman-Wright (Lisa)
