Good by high standards

I'm picky about movies, so my 3-star is worth 4 from most people, except those who need car-chases, exploding cars, and wire-supported stunts. It has one piece of sci-fi that initiates the plot: People from the future time-traveling back to our present. From that point, the plot plays out rationally, though the time-paradox is not truly confronted or explained away. The present-day characters are realistic and well defined, as are their interrelationships. The future people are left somewhat fuzzy, though they are fleshed out as persons, not mere mysteries. For anyone who likes sci-fi or futurist films, I highly recommend this. For the rest, it at least deserves a rental.

Absolutely GRAND!

I was looking for a movie to rent years ago at a popular video chain in CA. and there was this special movie rack of "sleepers". Basically movies that just didn't catch on with the masses. So I look through them and end up taking only one of them home. This movie has haunted me ever since. I found a copy years ago and before I even got to view it again I had given it to a relative who was visiting from out of state. Needless to say I never saw or heard about their take on it again. But now I have my very own copy and you can forget about borrowing this one! This movie will sneak up on you if you just give it a chance. . . fifteen minutes or so. The use of the word "grand" will either amuse you are drive you nuts however. Get used to it, it helps to set you up for the deeper meaning of the movie. Enjoy the suggestion and the innuendo.

Better than Expectations.

It would have been 5-stars if they would not have over-stretch the uneventful first-half. The production is modest, but the story is very good. And the cast do a good job. A reviewer in this page called it "Like A long Twilight Zone Episode", and that just about sums it up.

Fluff but Fun

This is a TV movie. It's fluff. It had the potential to be a great SCI-FI flick but not the budget or the nerve to push for greatness. Did I enjoy it. Yep. Glad to own it. Would I recommend it? Only to a true sci-fi geek like me or a collector. The movie makes an attempt at the end to astound us...but a blind man without his seeing eye dog in a dark room could see it coming before he even sits down! Bad example but kind of truthful.
