Coherence came out in 2013, and the movie is phenomenal. Such an awesome take on the whole time theory.

+1 was another very good one, and more fun than mine bending, but does a great job tackling it.

I’m currently watching Dark, but enjoying it for sure.

Darth_Brooks,

I’ll tell you yesterday

SupraMario,

Project Lazarus…and steins gate has already been said but both are fantastic.

Prisoner of Azkaban was for me the only good Harry Potter movie, because I dig time travel movies

AWittyUsername,

Dark or 12 monkeys. Bodies didn’t start off great but that was also pretty good. Anything time travel has a 10x multiplier for how I judge it though tbh.

TurtsnGurt,

Bodies (2023) on Netflix. I found it in my suggestions and thought the premise was intriguing so I decided to give it a watch. I ended up binging the entire season. It won’t likely get a second season but it seems the writers planned on it just being a one off.

A novella, so against the rules: This Is How You Lose The Time War

Since it’s letters exchanged between adversaries, it’d be rough to translate to visual media.

duffman,

Not my absolute fAvorite but I think most time travel fans would appreciate this absolute gem of a movie: I’ll Follow You Down.

It’s dark beautiful and underappreciated.

Zeroc00l,

Tv show: Tripped a great watch, low-ish budget but very well done. Starts off as kind of a stoner comedy but gets way deeper, while still being fun. Also it’s more of a dimension travel show rather than time travel.

Movie: Frequently Asked Questions About Time Travel probably my favourite time travel movie, heaps of fun and the actors & story are great.

Movie: Primer a pretty smart movie, I think the directors (who also starred) were scientists so the story is quite grounded in how time travel would (likely) work out.

Movie: Time Lapse a gripping movie about a camera that can show the future, mostly filmed in one house. A good watch.

MrEC,

Project Almanac

I_Fart_Glitter,

Sirens of Titan by Kurt Vonnegut, but that’s a book.

It’s not my favorite ever, but I’m currently watching a weird Canadian, 30 year old-woman-finding-herself comedy drama that is based around a magical therapist who uses time travel in his sessions. It’s called Being Erica and it’s on Hulu. I can’t stop watching it.

Time cop

pturn1,

Just finished season 2 of The Lazarus Project. Great series and plenty of time crossings to keep you thinking about the character journeys (who’s where and when!).

TheTim,

Can’t believe nobody has mentioned “Needle in a Time stack” (2021).

Oh wait. Yes I can.

But seriously though, I’ll throw a real answer out there. It’s not my favorite by a long stretch, but it’s worth a watch IMO: Paradox (2016). The writing is bad, the acting is bad, and the special effects are literally laughable, but the story and concept are actually fairly fresh and interesting. Good if you’re in the mood for a semi-thought-provoking B-movie.
