Summary: I thought this was like back to the future....:>(
Review: I for some reason was under the impression that this movie was the millennium version of "Back to the future"....okay so I figured out late it wasn't, but this movie seemed so.....Disney-ish, I mean I can't see why anyone should go out with the family to go see this movie in the theaters when it could so easily be seen on the Disney channel. When this gets released to regular television believe me the editors don't have to do anything...the movie was TAME. Michael Biehn from the Terminator was wrong for the role of the villain,the movie could've went on without him and no one would've noticed.
And it was good for once to see an "african American" in a movie of this nature....but he had to be acting "buffoonish" of course, dude was in like 3 scenes or something but was on the cover of the box. I guess overall to break it down, I am trying to say it was an original concept for the watch stopping time (freez framing the world around you ) but it ended up too predictable and at times corny...kids'll love it, adults may not.

Summary: "Clockstoppers" doesn't even deserve a first chance.
Review: I guess that, given the fact that a movie like "Clockstoppers" is overall aimed at a target audience of people ages 3 and under, that gives me little right to verbally crush every little detail of its ridiculously bad conception. But still, after having been cheated out of almost two hours of my life, I feel a bit compelled to voice my rather strong opinion on just how atrocious and downright bad the film really is. Sure, the special effects are good... for about the first five minutes. Okay, so I should let go of my cynicism and common sense, and just go along for the ride. But the ride is not fun. The movie is not fun. The entire experience is about the equivalent of sitting through a conversation on Einstein's theory of relativity, which (gasp!) finds itself a seat on this hackneyed roller coaster. The film stars Jesse Bradford ("Bring It On") as Zach, a goof-off teenager who harbors feelings of angst for his father, a science professor who has more time for his job than for his family. The movie supplies him with everything from a token black character as his best friend, a newly-arrived Spanish exchange student played with a lousy accent who becomes his love interest, and a mother and sister who are little more than discards once the movie decides it doesn't need them anymore. I'm telling you, these people are a real trip, and the film's actual plot hasn't even gotten started. Not that it's any better or worse; in fact, I'd put the interest level of this film with that of John McTiernan's remake of "Rollerball," and that's being generous, considering what a mess that movie was. As the story goes, we find out Zach's father has been helping a former student with experiments on a watch that has the ability to transport its wearer into what is called "hypertime," where one's molecular structure moves at a rate faster than that of his/her surroundings. At least the movie does have the good sense to explain that one ages faster while engaged in hypertime, but scientific facts and realistic plot points aren't exactly the film's strong suit. And just when we thought the movie couldn't get any worse, a new subplot comes into play. A crooked scientist played by Michael Biehn wants the watch for his own dark intentions, and kidnaps Zach's father, leaving it up to Zach and his girlfriend, Francesca, to thwart a speechless leather-clad Asian bimbo, a black man supplied with two lines of dialogue throughout the entire movie... are you seeing a pattern here? Director Jonathan Frakes does supply the film with a couple of nifty special effects involving our main characters interacting with their surroundings, which seem frozen in time. But you've seen one slow-motion/fast-motion sequence, and you've seen everything the movie has to offer; that, and Francesca constantly uttering "Every guy deserves a second chance." Too bad "Clockstoppers" doesn't even deserve a first chance.

Summary: some good fun
Review: I must say, I was overly surprised by how much I enjoyed this movie. I didn't think it was great or anything, but I had a fun time watching it. It sure beat the socks off the new 2002 movie The Time Machine. And also, my five year sister enjoyed Clockstoppers as well.

Summary: fun movie, especially for younger teenagers
Review: I'm not so harsh a reviewer as some have been on this movie, I thought it was a fun way to spend 90 minutes. The plot concerns a research project headed by a government agent (Michael Biehn)that is supposed to develop a means of altering time. The concept , to speed time up so that an agent can do a mission undetected, works but has a drawback in that using it too much speeds up the aging process. Because of this drawback Biehn's projcet will be shut down unless he can find a solution. The kids get into it when the boy discovers that a watch his father had (sent to him by the other scientist)isn't actually a watch at all but a device that appears to freeze time except for the wearer or someone in contact with them. The viewer is 'treated' to a long run of scenes in which the boy and girl have fun with the device, these are mostly very well done. I can't remember how far you actually get though the movie before the kids come into contact with the first scientist from the project but they soon are drawn into rescuing the boys father(an associate of the first scientist, he was kidnapped to do what the other man could not)and defeating the evil Govt. agent and his crew. The plot is very thin but fun to watch, much better suited to young teens than their parents.

Summary: Clock Stoppin' Good Time
Review: If you are looking for a Movie that is fun and entertaining to watch you've found it. The effects are awesome; the acting is great, and finally a movie where the dialog isn't corny. It takes a couple of times watching the movie to fully grasp what is happening, and that is why you can watch this movie over and over again without getting sick of it. You'll be amazed at how many times you can watch it and still find scenes and sentences you don't remember hearing. If you are looking for a movie that you can enjoy over and over again while still being interesting, then I strongly recommend this movie, you'll be glad you bought it.
