Mysterious pills, a chance to travel into the past to try and save a loved one. On the one hand, it’s a cliché that's been done hundreds of times, but which might just as well serve as material for a moving story. In the case of Will You Be There? everything points to the fact that this could be that kind of story. After all, the cast is great, the script has some nice ideas, and the opening shots of Cambodia give the viewer hope that this wasn't made by someone just for kicks, but that it's going to be grand. And maybe it is, but I missed out on the most important thing: I couldn't get into it. I don't know why, I don't know the reason, I don't know how it could have been done better. I appreciated some features of the film, but as a whole I didn't enjoy it and it left me with a sad feeling that I wouldn't want to conjure up again. A weaker 3 stars. (13.04.2020)
