verdict |
A 1 dimensional romantic comedy with a time travel gimmick. It feels like no one is trying and a director's cut doesn't save Kate & Leopold.

The more time Kate spends with Leopold, the harder she falls for him. But if he doesn't return to his own time, his absence will forever alter history. |
