Ví dụ
Time has not been kind to many of the beliefs held by Michael Douglas's character in the 1987 film Wall Street.

Time has not been kind to Love Actually.

Deryck Whibley has fought his demons and won, but time has not been kind to the band who lurch from one cover to the next, Master Of Puppets onto an ill-advised rendition of Queen and various guitar solos, it all highlights their lack of songs besides the one or two hits everyone was waiting for at the end of Fat Lip and In Too Deep.
