Roger Ebert April 22, 1988. Tweet. “A Time of Destiny” is a film of strong, pure emotions, of which the most powerful are love, hate and jealousy.

An obvious melodrama with numerous nonsequiturs required to make the story work, acting so perfect as to be unreal, and technical and artistic mediocrity, "....Destiny" makes for a marginal watch at best.
