Pros: Great plot, acting. Lots of fun. Cons: None come to mind.
There are movies that you watch once, and immediately know you’ll never want to watch again. And then there are those that you can watch time after time, without ever growing tired of them. At least in my book, Nicholas Meyer’s Time After Time ...
Just imagine that time travel can exist, as purported by H. G. Wells, and just suppose you are able to go forward or backward in time. Would you consider changing events that have a powerful impact on other's lives? Like that little trip...
Pros: The lead performances are wonderful, as is the commentary. Cons: As with any time-travel film, paradoxes abound, so tread lightly.
A combination of romance, comedy and adventure, Time After Time might not be a timeless story (the 1970s look doesn't help in that regard), but it remains a very good one, even after 25 years. (Besides, how can you hate a film in which H.G. Wells ends up ...
Pros: Date friendly Cons: The premise isn't fully thought out.
On the face of it, Time After Time (1979) would appear to be a variation on the story "The Time Machine" by H. G. Wells as well as on the 1960 George Pal screen adaptation. Surprisingly the movie ends up more satisfying as a romantic fantasy than...
Pros: good script, fine directing, excellent acting Cons: should have made the Ripper more believable
It is hard to believe that the same Malcolm McDowell who played that dastardly bastard in the chilling "Clockwork Orange" (1971) is the same actor who plays the befuddled but charming H. G. Wells in "Time After Time" (1979). David...
Pros: great acting, intelligent story, suspenseful Cons: Not enough people have seen it or heard about it
My parents took me to see Time After Time when I was a kid, and I saw it probably 12 times after that at the theater on my own. I own it, and when I worked in a video store, I consistently recommended it. It's a charming, suspenseful tale of famed...
When modern readers hear the title TIME AFTER TIME, they are far more likely to think in terms of Cyndi Lauper's song than of Malcom McDowell or David Warner. I would strongly suggest that these readers get themselves a copy of TIME AFTER TIME.
...
Pros: Malcolm McDowell, David Warner, very Whovian. Cons: Plot is kind of cliched, but you won't notice.
I first got this movie because I was a big fan of both Malcolm McDowell and David Warner. This movie is exciting and loads of fun, with enough blood, guts, and gore to keep a guy like me happy.
Pros: Good little flick Cons: Stands in the middle of the genre
"Time after Time" is a nice film for the time travel genre. The premise is HG Wells invents a time machine and it is used by Jack the Ripper to go to 1970's San Francisco.
This is a well told story of Mr. Wells trying to do...
I've always been fascinated by time travel stories and this one, with it's fascinating and carefully delineated characters remains as one of the best of the genre. In what could have been a stupid B-movie Ed Wood type flick, is instead a film of great...
This is a absolute must for every science fiction movie collection. The plot is basic but the graphics (for the time frame) are stunning. Love, action, suspense all placed in a both old England and the new era is a wonderful contrast.
Pros: The charactes performed in a stunning fashion. Cons: The story was cut too short, when love was returning back into time.
This move is a true classic, the application of theory of time travel make s it possible to have an understanding of events that could occur in time travel, if one would approach a time machine in this manner. To use the sun as a source of energy to...
