Surprisingly Fun Movie
I was surprised to find myself enjoying this sci-fi/action/thriller of a movie. The suspense kept me glued to the screen wondering what would happen before the predictable ending. If you're a tele-transport/time-travel film buff you'll enjoy this movie for its potential technological suggestions if nothing else.

The acting was as acting is in these types of films. Sure, at times it seemed like a made for tv movie, but with a bit of imagination you'll feel as if you sat through a real feature film. If films are meant to entertain then this one did the trick. I give the time travel concept the award for best feature of the film. The bad guys were probably the best actors, or maybe had the best parts.

In either case I don't think you could go wrong watching this movie on a night when your mood wants a bit of this and a bit of that. Warning: there is no sex, drugs or loud music in this film.

Careful reading too much about this movie. Better to go in...

Not so much Sci Fi
I wish I could put it in words - I didn't hate it; I didn't love it. The movie from the Sci Fi side just wasn't well thought out. It wasn't believable. I'm not a critic and won't try to be one but this is just an "ok" movie.
