      Seattle Post-Intelligencer

      Though he tries hard for bravado, hero Edward Burns is terminally wooden.

      The ending seems predestined, and the overlong, tepid journey getting to that point isn't worth the price of admission.

      USA Today

      The cliché-laden dialogue, schlocky special effects and predictable plot are derivative; the movie is overwrought and lacks suspense.

      Burns doesn't even bother to disguise his New York accent, any more than he does his boredom.

      One redeeming feature of this picture is that it will make great fodder for those make-fun-of-the-movie TV shows.

      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.

      Variety

      A clunky and cheesy disaster.

      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.
