As if single women on the brink of 30 didn’t have enough to deal with, along comes writer/director Jac Schaeffer’s nifty directorial debut film 
Timer, a science-fiction/romantic comedy blend that adds an extra layer of anxiety to love and marriage.
In the movie, for a fee, you can have a clock inserted into your arm that tells you to the second when you will meet your true love – provided that he or she has the same device implanted. If not, your clock will appear blank, as is the case with Oona (Emma Caulfield), a dentist who is unable to fall in love because her timer is still blank. Her stepsister Steph (Michelle Borth) has the opposite problem – her timer reveals she has another 5000 days to wait, so she fills her days and nights with meaningless flings. Oona eventually meets and falls for a young supermarket clerk (John Patrick Amedori), but he has a big problem – a timer.
Charming and full of spot-on performances, Timer will appeal to the Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind crowd – those who like their romance served with a little science fiction.
The DVD even comes packed with special features, including a commentary and deleted scenes.
