Ben Burgraff (cariart) TIME SHARE is not the kind of film that will find it's way onto anyone's 'Top Ten' list, but as a light, entertaining romantic comedy, it is a pleasant diversion, and offers stars Timothy Dalton and Nastassja Kinski more 'audience friendly' roles than they've been appearing in, lately.He's a master chef/widower with devoted kids, a 'live life to the fullest' attitude, and a wicked grin; she's a botanist/divorcee with a geeky fiancé, frustrated kids, and a pent-up passion searching for an outlet. From the moment they meet, trying to squeeze their cars past one another for the last spot on a ferry to their island rental, they become both enemies and rivals, a situation that becomes even more pronounced when they discover that both families have been accidentally booked into the same summer rental. While the kids quickly bond, Dalton and Kinski simply seem to find more ways to irritate one another...although when she caresses him in the shower (thinking him to be her fiancé), she discovers him to be far more of a man than her current beau...and listening to her talk in her sleep, he learns that her aloofness hides a smoldering sexuality waiting to be released.Can True Love be far away?While a subplot of two of the children trapped on a sailboat in a storm lacks the tension to be truly effective, and Kinski's boyfriend is portrayed as so buffoonish and asexual that you wonder why she fell for him in the first place, the sexual chemistry between Dalton and Kinski is potent, and the film is romantic enough to make a good 'date movie'.For an evening's 'light' entertainment, you could do far worse than this easy-going comedy!

Rez77 Well, when I first heard of this movie my first thought was that it looked like another stupid made for TV movie. But after I watched it, I loved it! The lines are actually funny, The lead characters have great chemistry, and it never gets after school special-ish. And I think the acting was good, and the lead guy's shirtless scene was fine-it just showed him as a regular guy, not some super model. Oh, and Kevin Zegers looked fine!

TxMike SPOILERS - "Timeshare", two single people with kids somehow get assigned the same unit, at the same time. Of course, on the way to the ferry their vehicles almost collide, they argue, she goes first, the ferry is full. Later in the food store they round the same corner and their shopping carts end up head-to-head. On the beach, Dalton tries to teach her son to ride a horse, but she angrily talks him down. Dalton gets locked out, gets in through her bedroom patio door, she is sleeping with the dog and having romantic dreams, she wakes up and finds him in her room and screams. Eventually they become friends. Very predictable and somewhat enjoyable but marginal quality romantic comedy. I can only assume Kinski and Dalton just needed some cash and a bit of exposure, because this is not a particularly good movie.

sumrrain What a hideous waste of talent. Nastassja Kinski valiantly tries to do something with the script, but Timothy Dalton's try at comedy is over-the-top and pathetically schtick. And what a shame he decides to go shirtless in a few scenes. His stomach is the size of a Volkswagen Beetle. As for the kids in this film, they were better than average and like Nastassja, get an A+ for trying. The plot is as creaky as they come and utterly ridiculous, to boot. One of the worst tv movies I've seen in a long, long time.
