Sliding doors critics consensus.
It is very interesting that in 1998 two movies presented similar concepts of different situations depending on a minor event.
With a pleasing balance of romance comedy and drama sliding doors is an exceedingly original story that appeals to both the heart and mind.

I submit that there is a simple test to determine whether this plot can work.

Despite the gimmicky feel of the split narratives the movie is watch able due to the winning performances by the cast.
90s fantasy romance has mature themes lots of profanity.
Sliding doors uses parallel time lines to explore the different paths that a woman s life might take after she does and doesn t find her lover in bed with another woman.

When helen leaves her job to return home the film splits off into two case scenarios one where she makes her train and one where she doesn t as the sliding doors close off her entry.
