Diane Ruth A spectacular science fiction adventure based upon the classic characters and premise of esteemed author H.G. Wells. Talented director Matt Codd has managed to do some wondrous things with a limited budget and the production values in this motion picture are stunning. The special effects, set design, and creatures are breathtaking. A completely original and creatively unique elaboration of The Time Machine, this is a story of the Morlocks invading our time through a breach the fabric of time itself. An exciting idea beautifully realized by director Codd and full of excitement, thrills, and haunting imagery. A gifted cast give superb performances and really bring their fascinating characters to life. A tremendous cinematic accomplishment.
Mike Boyd Dear, oh, dear. Surely Robert Picardo must have known this was going to be a rubbish movie. But maybe, like me, he thought it had potential and was worth investing in. How wrong we were.Such bad scripts, bad plot, bad direction! If only the basic idea behind the story could have been developed properly, this could have been such a good movie.Some of the actors were actually not bad, so really the only mistake they made was to be involved in such a poorly directed movie. So the director is the one who should take all the blame for this fiasco. Maybe he'll claim he didn't have enough money to do the plot justice. Maybe the cartoon tank near the end of the film was one way he saved some money.I love the way you have these professional soldiers trying to kill alien creatures and their machine guns take about 30 seconds of continual fire to kill just one of them. Say! Here's an idea... get a bigger freakin' gun!
Livewire242 "Morlocks" are a race from H. G. Wells' "The Time Machine". When I see this in the TV listings, I'm thinking SyFy has come up with a fun new spin on the story. But other than the fact that time travel figures in to the story peripherally, there's no similarity at all. Even for SyFy, known for its dreadful production values, this is an all-time worst.The CGI is so bad it would have been embarrassing in the 90s. Today, it's unforgivable. The director (if they actually had one) gave up even having the actors pretend to fire their guns and just animated muzzle flashes on them--even on the guns that weren't aimed at the enemy.Things like breaking glass and tanks busting through walls look like they were animated by first-week film school students who just started learning CGI.David Hewlett shows that he is perfectly capable of playing the exact same character in everything he does, as does Robert Picardo.I have no idea how I managed to watch the whole thing. But at no point did I consider my time well spent.
Flowmaster Half way thru this thing(I won't even call it a movie)I felt like setting my head on fire and putting it out with a fire axe. Watch this thing at your own peril. Seriously, This thing is just another piece of junk churned out by Syfy. I was hoping that David Hewlett and Robert Picardo would go on to do some better things than this, as I have enjoyed their characters on several series. They must be wanting to buy a new boat or put a new pool in their backyard. As this thing probably took a weekend to shoot, so it was a quick paycheck for them. We need to come up with a generic review we can just cut and paste on all these Syfy movies. That way we wouldn't waste time typing out what everybody already knows.
