A computer-implemented method, system, and computer program product to perform an intelligent rewind function includes: identifying one or more events that occur during playback of media content; identifying an interrupt event in the one or more events, where the interrupt event is an event that is estimated to be disruptive to a user consuming the media content; locating an event time on a timeline of the media content, where the event time is associated with the interrupt event; and reverting the media content to a rewind time in the timeline, where the rewind time is associated with the event time.
