About this product

Product Information

This adaptation of the classic sci-fi adventure tale by H.G. Wells, directed by Simon Wells (the great-grandson of the author), stars Guy Pearce as Alex Hartdegen, an absentminded New York professor preoccupied with what passes for technology at the turn of the 20th century. However, the one thing that can distract him from his calculations is his love for Emma (Sienna Guillory), his bride-to-be. When tragedy strikes and he loses Emma, Alex uses the time-travelling machine that he's built in secret to change the present by going into the past. When that fails to alter fate, he leaps forward in time, eventually landing 800,000 years in the future, an era where humanity has splintered into two races--the docile Eloi and the ferocious Morlocks. There Alex befriends two of the Eloi (Samantha and Omero Mumba) and attempts to help them resist almost certain death at the hands of the Morlocks.Like Pearce's character, this version of the novel is fascinated with technology and uses a daunting array of special effects. The fast-paced film was apparently not made without incident--Wells reportedly had a nervous breakdown during the shoot. Regardless of production difficulties, THE TIME MACHINE is an engaging spectacle that's anchored by Pearce and enhanced by the commanding appearance of Jeremy Irons.

Good adaptation of HG Wells original.
I always love the movies about time travel. The things that motivate this man to time travel while ultimately leading him to more pressing problems!! I liked it.

The time machine remake.
The most remarkable thing about the film is that it was made by the great grandson of HG Wells. It was a re-imagination of the 1960 film staring Rod Taylor and Yvette Mimieux. It was fairly good, but the Hero of the film left something to be desired. Alan Young had a cameo in this remake, who played David Filby and James Filby in the 1960 version.

"The Time Machine really turns into a Great, Action-Packed movie..."
The movie, The Time Machine, was something I owned along time ago and lost. It took me sometime but I had to replace it. I remember watching it in the theater when it came out along time ago. Along with getting this movie for nostalgia-purposes, the Time Machine really has it's awesome moments, the ending was great and it has a cool cast, including Samantha Mumba (the musician), Orlando Jones (from those old 7-Up Commercials), and even Jeremy Iron (the voice of Scar from Disney's the Lion King). The Time Machine was a hint slow in the beginning, might be too scary for kids, but turns into great Action-Packed/nail-bite-ing movie!!! If i had to compare it to any movie, I'd have to say, towards the end, was similar to the Lion King. You might have to look hard, but I say this cause the ...

If i had to compare it to any movie, I'd have to say, towards the end, was similar to the Lion King. You might have to look hard, but I say this cause the main villian, Uber-Morlock (Jeremy Iron) makes a referenece to having to "control the food chain", and in the Lion King, Scar (Jeremy Iron) exhaust the jungles "food chain" and thereby throws of the "circle of life". Otherwise, The Time Machine was in a class of it's own. I strongly recommend it!!! Thanks.

Great DVD!
The DVD contained the most recent film adaptation of H.G. Wells' "Time Machine" a novel written roughly a hundred years ago. Although I read the book itself and saw other film adaptations, this version also tells the story in a fully entertaining way. The most striking feature of this film is the use of modern computer graphics to depict various scenes, notably the changes on Earth, as the Time traveler advances to the future. The scene of the near-future of 2030, also a new feature in this film, was an attractive part of this film. Even though its story somewhat deviates from the original one, I thought that it was overall a good piece of entertainment. I decided to buy it because I read the book not long ago.The DVD contained the most recent film adaptation of H.G. Wells' "Time Machine" a novel written roughly a hundred years ago.

Time Travel Is So COOL ! THANKS SIMON WELLS
For those that love time travel movies, this one tops the list. Thanks to the mind and matter of H.G. Well's Great-Grandson Simon Wells, this film is a total masterpiece. The time machine prop is on record to be the most expensive single prop in film-to-date which was reported to weigh 7 to 8 tons and took over a year to actually build. Even though Simon Wells suffered from extreme exhaustion and had to turn over his work to Gore Vebinski to finish the last 18 days of shooting, the film was completed and planned to open in theaters in December of 2001. Because of the attack on 9/11, the film was re-edited to exclude a sequence where New York City was bombarded by meteor showers. The film actually didn't hit theaters until March of 2002.

Well's Great-Grandson Simon Wells, this film is a total masterpiece. The time machine prop is on record to be the most expensive single prop in film-to-date which was reported to weigh 7 to 8 tons and took over a year to actually build. Even though Simon Wells suffered from extreme exhaustion and had to turn over his work to Gore Vebinski to finish the last 18 days of shooting, the film was completed and planned to open in theaters in December of 2001. Because of the attack on 9/11, the film was re-edited to exclude a sequence where New York City was bombarded by meteor showers. The film actually didn't hit theaters until March of 2002. The film captures the life of Alexender Hartdegen (Guy Pierce), a young and somewhat eccentric scientist who becomes obsessed with mastering time travel. Alexander becomes grief stricken over his love's untimely death and begins building a time machine in order to travel back in time to prevent Emma (Sienna Guillory) from meeting her fate. After trying on several occasions to prevent her death, he finally gives up on going to the past and decides that the future might somehow hold more answers. Alexander's first stop in the future is 2030, then 2037, then July 16th, 802,701. An even spookier future looms over the lost traveler as he goes even further in the future to the year 635,427,810. He can not believe his eyes, so he travel back to 802,701 where he had left off to blow up the time machine forever to be stuck in the distant future he must now choose. The film gets very interesting when, in the year 2030, our young traveler visits the New York City Public Library and is introduced to an amazing online computer called VOX 114 played by Orlando Jones. In the year 802,701 we are introduced to the docile Eloi who supposedly live for the moment with no worry. Mara (Samantha Mumba), a beautiful young woman and her son Omero take in Alexander and bring him up to date on things of her day. We then are thrusts into meeting the underground Morloks, who are ferocious and turn out to be cannibalizing the Eloi one by one. The Uber-Morlock (Jeremy Irons), who turns out to be the top-leader of the evil underground people, becomes neither judgmental nor malicious towards Alexander and only wishes his speedy return back to his own time. There seems to be many similarities and close attention paid to the story-line between the 1960s version directed by George Pal and Simon Well's version updating or changing things every so slightly. Most of this film was made in New York and California. Various other oddities and things not usually mentioned are: Guy Pierce broke a rib making the film during a struggle with one of the Morlock Drones. The photo of H.G. Wells actually appears on the wall behind Alexander in many shots within Alexander's study. An unusual error is also documented that during the filming of the segment beginning in 2030, Actress Myndy Crist, who appeared on the credits at the end, shows up as JOGGER, yet the actress never jogged in the movie and was actually only seen walking, unlocking, and riding her bicycle. Also, interestingly enough, Alan Young, who played Filby in the 1960 version of The Time Machine, has a cameo appearance as a flower shop proprietor in the new film. 5/5 and Top Notch. IF YOU LIKE MY REVIEW PLEASE DON'T HESITATE TO LET ME KNOW BY VOTING. THANKS!
