Incannerax What a waste of my time!!!

Phonearl Good start, but then it gets ruined

Seraherrera The movie is wonderful and true, an act of love in all its contradictions and complexity

Mischa Redfern I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

Leofwine_draca TIME LAPSE is a cheesy straight-to-video thriller of 2001. It suffers from featuring an exceptionally wooden young actor, William McNamara, as the lead. He plays a guy who has been administered with a drug that will destroy his memory within a few days if he doesn't find the antidote in the meantime. Very much a reworking of the classic D.O.A., then. Sadly, this is an incompetent little production, failing to deliver on the script or direction, and the action scenes that do take place are staged in such a way that they're quite laughable, such as the massive explosions that leave our hero remarkably unscathed. Dina Meyer shows up as the female lead and Roy Scheider has a small, cliched role, but they're both wasting their time here.

briefcase119 Well, yes there were a lot of bangs, blasts, and flashbacks. But since it was up against the State of the Union address, it gets plus points for being more in touch with reality. Scheider appeared infrequently in the film, telegraphing in his performance from wherever he was mentally. He has done some really incredible films in the past... its sad to see him waste his time on this one. The female lead was easy on the eyes, and probably gave the most from her reserves of acting juice. The hunk/hero had less emotion than the beer bottle I was looking at him through. I watched it because it was the least objectionable thing on TV for that time slot, and thats not saying much.

rps-2 This is not only a bad movie, it is yet another scary symptom of a sick society being pandered to by an exploitive and irresponsible film industry. The plot is idiotic. As happens again and again, it is based on corrupt, all powerful government. There is endless gun play (in which nobody ever seems to hit anything)and repeated gore. There is a totally gratuitous lesbian sex scene which has absolutely no bearing on the plot. If things aren't being riddled with bullets or pushed out of windows, they're blown up in fiery explosions. Why are the Brits able to do some real nail-biters without resorting to this sort of blam-blam sensationalism. And the Americans wonder why they have a firearms problem... I am a great believer that you get what you pay for in bargain bin movies at Walmart. But I keep hoping. I paid a buck fifty for this one and would consider myself ripped off except that by replacing the erase tab, I can re-use the tape. Almost anything I record on it will be better than this vulgar, violent cinematic vomit!

Randy I didn't notice the use of footage from Renny Harlin's movie, but I did notice the use of footage from "Narrow Margin", specifically the shootout at the cabin in the woods. The guy in the helicopter is wearing a beige suit and cowboy boots. I could swear that I have also seen another movie that used this footage as well. The movie is extremely low budget and shows it. The acting and directing are all fairly unremarkable which is strange considering the talented cast. Perhaps this just points up the importance of a good script. No matter how talented the actor or the director is the story and dialog are uninteresting, so is the movie.
