This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.
... View MoreAs somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.
... View MoreEach character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
... View MoreI enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
... View MoreInteresting show. A little boring in places. Standard acting and writing but I liked its chutzpah in reworking old time travels tropes into something fresh. I especially liked the small role by the great director, David Cronenberg. His acting was probably the best in the bunch. I'm a big fan of his so getting to see him work in front of the camera instead of behind it was a big plus. The scene between him and the male lead was a well written scene, probably in no small part because of Cronenberg's casting. I doubt he would have done it if that scene was anything less than quality script. Only way this could have been picked up by Syfy is to have renamed it, "Timenado."
... View MoreGreat movie! The end was a bit puzzling at first, but then another review noted that the criminal who would have been killed was spared and became a war hero. The military man may have been him, or someone who knew about him and has figured out the truth about that guardian angel. Anyway, when he dresses for frigid weather and lands in another time, there are caves with animal drawings on them. After having witnessed what happened to New York, the military man despaired of humanity being a force for good on earth and went back to the Caves of Lascaux to eliminate the few humans living at that time. So all goes dark in New York and the rest of the world which never came to be, but was spared the destruction that humans created.
... View MoreI loved watching this and although I knew it was a failed pilot, i was still quickly overwhelmed by the huge sense of adventure in the story. Although this may have been made in a seemingly amateur style, I still believe that this show should have continued. The potential story's are endless. This left many questions unanswered as episodes should do as it makes you crave the next episode, thus there needs to be more. Call me inexperienced if you must but, I have not come across the whole idea of a ripple machine before. I always hated the whole uneasiness of movies with concepts of time travel where people go back in time for a certain reason and end up doing whatever they possible can to achieve the desired outcome. Then they return to their original time and only their desired result has occurred. I'm sure there should have been millions of ripples after the destruction they had caused. But this show tackles that problem implementing a true-sight backdrop for all ripples in time allowing the time travelers to know precisely the consequences of their actions.Overall this film was intriguing and adventurously fun.
... View MoreTime Tunnel mixed with Quantum Leap, is essentially all you need to know. Nine million people die and it is up to three people to go back into the past and fix it; trouble is they are forced to go back to the late 1920s to find a solution.Had this show continued we would have been treated to programs such as 'saving the President's life, but having to do it in a 15 hour window in Mongolia circa 947AD' and the like; the possibilities would have been endless.Real shame 'Rewind' got no further than this solitary episode, particularly with the interesting ending that ultimately leaves us hanging on forever.
