Directed by Peter Hyams without an ounce of suspense, too much testosterone, and little or no reason, Timecop takes the fun out of what has to be one of the most enduring human fantasies to go back and make things right.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Apr 26, 2022

What we need here is a good deal more humor and less self-important plot twisting.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Mar 2, 2022

It's not a great filmic exploration of time travel or science-fiction themes, but it's still a decent amount of fun.

| Original Score: 7/10 | Sep 25, 2020

This super-silly effort strays quite near the watchable thanks to it's looney-tunes time-travel angle.

As time-travel pictures go, this Jean-Claude Van Damme vehicle is a passable but disappointing excursion into well-traveled terrain.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Apr 18, 2007

SF specialist Peter Hyams, doubling as usual as director and cinematographer, leaves his record for mediocrity unblemished in this silly time-travel tale.

Hyams is no stranger to large-scale sci-fi, so his management of the massive sets and slightly mechanical fx is more than adequate.
