Groundhog Day.

Crashumbc,

Is this time travel though?

Pumafred9,

Easier to put it in the ‘time travel’ genre than the ’ divine intervention until you get things completely the way things should be’ genre.

olafurp,

He travels back it time one day once per day.

masquenox,

It’s an anti-time travel movie. Soooo… I guess it counts.

Idiocracy

Crashumbc,

Not time travel but a good movie.

Valmond,

Well he travelled forward in time :-)

Steins;Gate

Extrasvhx9he,

Great choice

IMDb link: imdb.com/title/tt1910272/

It’s on Hulu, Funimation, and Crunchyroll

It has a really good dub

Edit: Might also be on Netflix in Japan and UK

fastandcurious,

Was searching for this, probably has one of the best anime dubs so anyone can enjoy it

Trail,

Especially the visual novel.

Synchronic starring Anthony Mackie was pretty good, I thought

lillardfair,

I thought it was pretty good, but maybe a little rushed in the scenes where he’s putting together what the drug is doing. Also, I saw this after seeing Spring and The Endless by the same writer/ director team and I really enjoyed those. If you haven’t seen them and liked Synchronic, I highly recommend both.

kromem,

Future Man (2017-2020) is silly and fun, but actually surprisingly smart with its handling of time travel.

Udonezo,

That show confused the crap outta me. They did their best to make the MC seem completely worthless. And it felt like the writers were straight ripping on the target audience the whole time. Look no further than the opening scene to know what I mean

SendMePhotos,

Dude this ended up being one of my favorites. It is crude humor and just a blast to watch. The character development is there and the story progress is fantastic to watch unfold. It was surprisingly delightful in all aspects.

Check out Palm Springs.

MajorMajormajormajor,

I was surprised by how good this was. The premise seems very … simple? They did a really good job with it though, very entertaining.

Voyagers. Early 80s with a similar idea to Quantum Leap. I was at a very influential age and absolutely loved this show. It was cut short after the tragic death of the lead actor.

Davel23,

Voyagers had been cancelled well before Jon Erik Hexum's death, he died (killed himself, really) on the set of his next show.

Slaughterhouse-Five (1972)

Making the reader understand nonlinear time by describing the way humans experience linear time (traveling along train tracks, at a set speed, only able to look forward) was absolutely brilliant. Hell, I still sorta remember that part and I haven’t read the book in decades.

it isn't time travel, but Counterpart is a very similar trip.. incredible cast and story..

Primer (2004)

My favorite movie about time travel is Back to the Future, but the movie that I think did time travel best is Primer. If time travel works, it’s probably like that.
