The film "We Live in Time," starring Florence Pugh, tells the story of a chef facing cancer. However, critics say the film's emotional moments and narrative are poorly executed, making it difficult for viewers to connect with the characters. Pugh's performance is noted as a highlight, but the film suffers from awkward storytelling and contrived situations. The relationship between Pugh's character and Andrew Garfield's is described as lacking chemistry, which diminishes the film's impact. "We Live in Time" opens in select theaters on October 11, with plans for a wider release. Critics suggest that it fails to deliver the emotional depth found in other cancer-themed films.
