We Live in Time

Movie 2024 108 min Romance, Drama Last reviewed 2 Sep 2026
Official Rating M ClearAge 16+ Quality ★★★★☆

Our take

We Live in Time is an R-rated romance following a chef and a divorcée across ten years. Expect frequent f-word kitchen banter, sexual references, partial nudity, wine at meals, and a cancer storyline with emotional hospital scenes. Reviews praise its tenderness but note adult language and bedroom content. Best for mature older teens and adults

Uplifting themes

Commitment, caregiving, and finding joy in small moments together Partners show up through career and health setbacks

Story (may spoil tone)

An up-and-coming chef and a recent divorcée find their lives forever changed when a chance encounter brings them together, in a decade-spanning, deeply moving romance.
