I found John Lynch as Gerry, Helen's boyfriend, to be totally miscast. With his perpetual hangdog expression, his leech-like ways and general incompetence, he was not believable as a man two strong women would want. This really hurt the film for me and is why I give it four stars and not five. Secondly, i didn't get whether the director was hinting at a certain amount of predestination at work in life or not, but certain major events happened in both of Helen's lives that would suggest that. I wish he would have elaborated more on that but perhaps he left it as something to think about. Finally, Helen seemed to be realizing more of her potential in one timeline than in the other and this becomes an issue to think about. The left open ending leaves it open as a potential possibility. Reviewed in the United States on April 5, 2017 Verified Purchase I had watched La-La-Land and came out both smiling and with tears in my eyes. The big "what if? " scenario was on my mind! What if I would have turned right instead of left in my life?
What could have happened instead? At that moment I remembered this movie from the 90's. I knew the overall gist of the story but had never seen it. Well, 20 years after it's release I finally did and I loved it a lot. I am normally not a big Gwyneth Paltrow fan, but she juggles her role(s) well. John Hannah for me is the beating heart of the movie and if you have one, you will relate to the two stories in the movie and our eternal fascination with serendipity, fate, karma, kismet, "meant to be" and even a little bit of redemption and gumption. Top reviews from other countries 4. 0 out of 5 stars Science for Romantics Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 12, 2019 Verified Purchase I decided to watch this after reading 'David Deutch' 'The beginning of Infinity'. He writes about it in view of the mulitverse (read the book). This is a romantic view on the multiverse, to say, really, If I turned 'a different corner' (George Michael RIP). You can not go to the fridge for some soda, you will lost the thread of the movie.

(Not a spoiler. It happens in the first few minutes). In one scenario she catches the underground and arrives home early; in the other the doors close and she arrives home late. At that point two different timelines are established leading to two different life outcomes for Helen. I'm not giving any more away than that. The director and writer, Peter Howitt, does a nice job of switching back and forth between the two resulting stories almost simultaneously without creating a mess of things. It helps that the Helen who catches the train decides to cut her hair and go blonde; a writer's trick, I know, but a useful one. Gwyneth is excellent portraying both versions of Helen, one more naive than the other. The supporting cast is generally excellent, especially John Hannah as James. The ending, while left up to the viewer is generally satisfying. I do have a few reservations about the film and here I will place a MILD SPOILER WARNING. I will not give away specific events but will necessarily touch on a few plot elements.

BBC One - Sliding Doors This programme is not currently available on BBC iPlayer Romantic comedy. Helen is about to discover that fate can be sealed as quickly as a pair of sliding doors. There are two sides to every story, and Helen is about to live them.
You be the judge as to which one is preferable. The film seamlessly weaves these two stories in and out throughout the film, allowing the viewer to see the differences between what was and what might have been. John Hannah, in the role of James, the nice guy who comes to Helen's rescue, is more prominent in one scenario, yet the viewer still sees him in the other, almost as if he and Helen were as ships passing in the night, with the promise of things to come. Yet, as the viewer will discover, all roads lead to Rome. The film provides much food for thought on free will, predestination, and other metaphysical issues. This is a remarkable film, beautifully directed and with outstanding performances by the entire cast. I absolutely love it! Reviewed in the United States on July 25, 2017 Verified Purchase What a difference a moment in time makes. It only took a moment, according to this movie, and her whole live changed. Wow! I loved seeing how this played out. **A bit of a spoiler: And in the end it doesn't matter (this is the best part) because if it's meant to be, it will happen, maybe differently but, will be.
