tripwire657 First I have to admit to being a fan of B-Movies (Battle Beyond The Stars, Primal Species, Hollow Point). Mostly because they rarely cost $20.00 and also because, once in a while, you come across something like this movie.It's never going to be a contender for Cannes or The Oscars and, given todays penchant for eye candy, will unlikely make the top 10 at Blockbusters but for all that it delivers a good dose of entertainment. Interesting, if a little rickety sci/fi action, workmanlike acting and a well paced narrative all add to either a nights rental or, if you are like me, probably $6.The best way to go into this movie is to see it as a modern take on that classic Dicken's yarn A Christmas Carol. Wherein a man who is absolutely convinced of his convictions is given a chance to see the consequences of his unyielding view of the world.Forget the bargain bucket S/FX and plot holes (only one really) as well as the fact that you can pretty much guess the ending about 35 minutes into the plot. Just pop a soda, open a bag of chips and watch Corbin's character slowly get more and more confused and frustrated.It's also worth watching even if you are not a fan of S/F as you could take out those elements at it would be still a reasonably engaging story about a man facing the truth about his character.If you liked A Long Kiss Goodnight then I suggest you give this a try (though Geena Davies has better legs).
rycar_m I saw the cover on the aisle at the video store as i read it I said to myself "another cheap movie" but since i like the "genere" i took it home.Needless to say I was surprised, it was a clever story. It had a nice atmosphere to it, maybe cause it was done by pros on a very low budgetThe storyline was great, the acting was in the pro catagory the direction and production where also in the tops (hey it was not perfect and it was low budget) What makes this film so good in my opinion is that it tells a time travel story in a new and different way. The science might not be correct (who knows?) But the storytelling is second to none.This film is much better than Michel Crichton's Timeline" Now theres a dog.Try to find the tomorrow man and you will love it.
kallabos-1 I admit I was skeptical, but I was pleasantly surprised by this one however. Watching this movie, I got the impression that the film makers wanted to do much more with the story but were hindered by budget limitations (we are talking about a B-movie here). Corbin Bernson did reasonably well in portraying the troubled father; however Beth Kennedy came up a little short on reflecting any emotion (no shortage of tongue in cheek humor though). The end is touching in a cliché sort of way. I was amused to see the small cameo by Zach Galligan. In the end, I believe that project had great potential but not enough financial resources or production time to flesh out shallow characters and thin story line.
fateswarm I liked this movie, it had a great plot and an average direction. Maybe the direction was not that bad, it was a low budget film, therefore maybe that had turned down the chances to be a big hit. Fantasy/Sci-fi friends go for it, others, you're gonna spend a nice evening with it. In overall, 7/10.
