Seattle Post-Intelligencer
Though he tries hard for bravado, hero Edward Burns is terminally wooden. - 50
ReelViews
The ending seems predestined, and the overlong, tepid journey getting to that point isn't worth the price of admission. - 38
USA Today
The cliché-laden dialogue, schlocky special effects and predictable plot are derivative; the movie is overwrought and lacks suspense. - 38
New York Daily News
Burns doesn't even bother to disguise his New York accent, any more than he does his boredom. - 25
Chicago Tribune
One redeeming feature of this picture is that it will make great fodder for those make-fun-of-the-movie TV shows. - 20
The Hollywood Reporter
A gloriously lead-footed excursion into time travel with all the accoutrements of 1950s science fiction: an absurd plot, cliched characters, corny effects and a race against time to save mankind. - 20
Variety
A clunky and cheesy disaster. - 20
The New York Times
This picture achieves a level of badness that is its own form of sublimity. You almost - please note that I said almost - have to see it to believe it.
