Reception
Andrew Le of Renowned for Sound wrote "the About Time soundtrack depicts the variety of experiences of life such as love, heartbreak, joy, reflection and confusion. Combining piano and orchestral songs with uptempo, modern pop classics may seem daft on paper, but it somehow works on record. This is so because the soundtrack is simply a fine, eclectic selection of songs. Actually, it would have been even more effective if it ended with Spiegel Im Spiegel."[4] James Christopher Monger of AllMusic wrote "the soundtrack dutifully reflects its story's time travel premise with a 17-song set of (mostly) previously released selections from the likes of the Killers, Groove Armada, Amy Winehouse and Nick Cave. Nick Laird Clowes offers up a pair of wistful piano pieces ("Golborne Road" and "The About Time Theme") from his evocative score."[5]
Leslie Felperin of Variety wrote "Soundtrack choices are at times painfully twee, and the overuse of that already overexposed tearjerker, Arvo Part’s “Spiegel im Spiegel,” particularly grates. Still, music producer Steve McLaughlin (no music supervisor is credited) gets a pass for using Nick Cave’s immortal “Into My Arms” in a key moment that will inspire those planning their own funerals in advance."[6] Richard Corliss of Time wrote "Curtis underscores his theme with a half-dozen love songs. Mike Scott’s “How Long Will I Love You?” snakes through the film; “I Will Always Love You,” “When I Fall in Love” and “Where or When” also dot the soundtrack. The songs are plangent and irony-free, and so is the movie."[7] Karenna Meredith of Popsugar wrote "soundtrack matches every peak and valley of the plotline".[8]
