DVD Reviews of Timeline (Widescreen Edition)

DVD Review: "Timeline" the movie. From the book by Michael Chricton
Summary: 5 Stars

A very good movie. An artful blend of science fiction and history, with a touch of romance. Good action, a good portryal of the trebuchet as the "terror weapon" of the 1300's Worth watching.

DVD Review: Great Movie
Summary: 4 Stars

This was an outstanding SCI-FI movie . The acting was very good and the plot was excellent. Great special effects and a stong cast. The DVD Was in good shape and played well. Great deal for .88c

DVD Review: Never a dull moment in this movie.
Summary: 5 Stars

I am not one who enjoys an action film. I did find myself drawn to this one though. It has charm and wonderful actors. There is twist's and turns throughout the film. My husband loved it so much that I decided to buy this for him. It's definately worth buying! It takes you through time but in a way that it differs from the rest of the "time traveling" films. It's the only one of it's kind and Would make a wonderful gift for anyone.

DVD Review: Still worth watching
Summary: 3 Stars

Paul Walker is laughably horrific in his lead performance, but the presence of the ever charismatic Gerard Butler and Billy Connoly save the film from disaster. Kate's character is played very poorly by a good actress, a fact which disappoints on several levels. Of course the book is far better than the film, but for those of us who can't completely grasp all the scientific concepts alluded to in the novel, the movie serves the purpose of giving you the bare basics. The fact that the movie disregards the common knowledge that modern French and English are far different from their Medieval counterparts is further exacerbated by the pathetic "Frenchman" of their group. However, the historical romance between Marek and Lady Claire steal the show and bring this film from a taudry piece of poorly written scripting into a likeable film I'm willing to watch often enough to warrant purchasing.

DVD Review: TIMELINE
Summary: 5 Stars

TIMELINE IS ORIGINAL AND VERY ENTERTAINING. GERARD BUTLER AS WELL AS THE WHOLE REST OF THE CAST IS GREAT.

VERY INTERESTING SUBJECT MATTER. IT'S A SCIENCE-FANTASY AND QUITE ENJOYABLE.

I'LL PROBABLY WATCH THIS ONE AT LEAST FOUR TIMES A YEAR!!

Description of Timeline (Widescreen Edition)

A group of archaeological students become trapped in the past when they go there to retrieve their professor. The group must survive in 14th century france long enough to be rescued. Studio: Paramount Home Video Release Date: 05/01/2007 Starring: Paul Walker Gerard Butler Run time: 115 minutes Rating: Pg13
Just enough of Michael Crichton's novel survives in Timeline to make it a passable popcorn thriller. It's likely that Crichton fans will lament the shallowness of director Richard Donner's film, and its gee-whiz style of acting lays waste to any scientific credibility that Crichton's scenario might have retained. Still, the Crichton formula is a sturdy one, following the model of Westworld and Jurassic Park by involving a small band of adventurers in a fantastical realm of danger and death. In this case, a group of archaeologists and combat experts (led by Paul Walker and Frances O'Connor) use a "3-D fax machine" (so much for technobabble!) to time-travel back to France in 1357, in hopes of retrieving Walker's father (Billy Connolly) and returning safely to the present. No such luck! Fending for themselves against marauding hordes of medieval French warriors at war with the invading British, these semi-intrepid travelers find their body count rising, and the deadline for their return home is rapidly approaching. All well and good, so far, and the castles-and-crossbows action reaches a fever pitch, but it's obvious that Donner's too lazy to make the much better film that this could and should have been. Despite its enjoyable highlights, Timeline is perfunctory entertainment. --Jeff Shannon
