Review of Clockstoppers

Clockstoppers (2002)
1/10
Poor adaptation of weak idea
5 July 2002
Jonathan Frakes once again demonstrates why he shouldn't be directing any film, let alone one that's supposed to keep you awake for an hour and a half.

Even ignoring the obvious scientific issues surrounding hypertime, this film makes no attempt to be of interest to anyone other the most juvenile of 13 year olds, and even they were pretty restless judging by the audience in the theatre I saw this in. By the time fifteen minutes had passed, I wished I had a hypertime device to make the film pass more quickly.

If you're after an entertaining family film, watch the little seen "Meteor Man" and give this one a pass.
