Free Time is an independent American comedy film written and directed by Ryan Martin Brown and starring Colin Burgess. It was released in theaters on March 22, 2024.

It was filmed in New York City in 10 days in the fall of 2021. Brown has said the film was influenced by The Heartbreak Kid and The Jerk. Visually, it was inspired by the films of Éric Rohmer.

The film was produced by Mackenzie Jamieson, Justin Zuckerman, Nolan Kelly, and Paula Andrea González-Nasser.

On August 24, 2023, the film was acquired by Cartilage Films.

Jordan Mintzer of The Hollywood Reporter called it a "cleverly concocted and occasionally hilarious tale of Generation Z malaise."

Christian Zilko of Indiewire gave it a B-, writing, "Burgess embodies Drew with the prerequisite amount of neuroticism for the lead in such a stereotypically New York movie."
