When the girl he loves is tragically killed, Alexander is determined to go back in time and change the path. Testing his theories, the time machine is hurtled 800,000 years into the future. He he discovers a terrifying new world. Instead of mankind being the hunter, they are now the hunted, with him stuck in the middle.
- Based on the classic sci-fi novel by H.G. Wells, scientist and inventor, Alexander Hartdegen, is determined to prove that time travel is possible. His determination is turned to desperation by a personal tragedy that now drives him to want to change the past. Testing his theories with a time machine of his own invention, Hartdegen is hurtled 800,000 years into the future, where he discovers that mankind has divided into the hunter - and the hunted.
- I first read the book The Time machine when I was about ten or eleven. It has a special place in my heart as one of the first 'grown up' Science Fiction books I ever read. I understand things have to change when novels are adapted. Concepts and ideas that look good on the page don't work on the screen and vice versa. I was resigned to their being being changes made to the original. I didn't mind too much that they had moved the location from London to New York, I didn't mind too much that our hero was given a love interest (who dies early on in the film thus giving him the Hollywood motivation to invent the Time Machine to go back and rescue her). I didn't mind too much that the innocent, aimless, childlike and docile Eloi are here depicted as an aware and innovative bunch of bronzed, muscled, tattooed hunter-gatherers (though the fact that some of them spoke flawless American English after 80,000 years did make me snort peanuts), I don't even mind that the Morlocks suddenly had a complex, hivelike social structure (grafted on from Wells' 'The First Men in the Moon') but what I do mind. What I really do mind is the total Hollywood bullshit ending which has the hero jamming a watch into the rapidly spinning components of his time machine, jumping off, out-running a whole bunch of specially bred killer orcs - sorry, 'Morlocks' - and then being pulled to safety (just in time!) to avoid the unnamed, unexplained, and unexpected deux ex machina temporal explosion, light show, special effects bonanza he just created - which wipes out all signs of badness without touching any of the good guys.<br/><br/>"Dunno how to end the movie, guys! So why don't we just throw a shedload of SFX at the screen and get out while everyone is still going 'Oooooh! shiny!'?" "Sounds good to me, it usually works." The author went on to write 'Star Trek 10' and no-one was surprised.
- I went to this movie with decent expectations. I had enjoyed Guy Pearce in "Memento" so I thought I'd give it a try. Well I wasted $7 on this movie. It was so bad we left about 1 hour into it. The script was immature and contrived and the directing was pretty lousy too. I really couldn't stand this movie. Don't go see it. Try reading the book.
- Deliberately quaint and old-fashioned, a once-over-slightly exercise in nostalgic wonder directed by the British-born great-grandson of H.G. Wells, who treats the spirit of his ancestor's novel with literal-minded fealty.
- Following the shooting death of his girlfriend Emma (<a href="/name/nm0347149/">Sienna Guillory</a>), New York scientist and professor Alexander Hartdegen (<a href="/name/nm0001602/">Guy Pearce</a>) constructs a time machine able to transport him back in time in an attempt to prevent Emma's death. When she also dies in the new timeline, Alex realizes he can't alter the past and decides instead to go into the future to see whether answers might be found there. By mishap, he travels to the year 802,701 AD where he learns that the human race is divided into two factions: the peaceful cliff-dwelling Eloi and the monstrous, apelike subterranean Morlocks who eat them. When the Morlocks capture the only friend he's been able to make—the young and pretty Eloi Mara (<a href="/name/nm0612571/">Samantha Mumba</a>)—Alex is faced with having to go underground to save her. The Time Machine is a remake of the 1960 classic, <a href="/title/tt0054387/">The Time Machine (1960)</a>, both of which were adapted from an 1895 novella, also titled The Time Machine, by English science fiction writer H.G. Wells [1866-1946]. The screenplay for the movie was written by American screenwriter John Logan. The main character was named George in the original movie. In the book, however, he was only referred to as "the time traveler." The Über-Morlock (<a href="/name/nm0000460/">Jeremy Irons</a>) is referencing mankind as a whole. Man's constant need to advance itself ultimately became its undoing, which came in the form of the moon colony destroying its inner core and setting up the conditions that forced humanity to split into Eloi and Morlock. Because Vox (<a href="/name/nm0428963/">Orlando Jones</a>), the Photonic Sphere built in 2030 AD, still exists and works. From it, the Eloi would have learned English. Mara speaks English so well because she teaches it to the Eloi. It might be assumed that the Über-Morlock knows English because of his telepathic ability to reach the minds of the Eloi. In the novel, however, the time traveler was unable to communicate with either the Eloi or the Morlocks, except by signs. Nobody spoke English. Alex successfully escapes from the Über-Morlock by hurling the time machine forward to the year 635,427,810 AD where he finds only a desolate valley overrun with Morlocks. Haing found the answer to his question—he cannot save Emma because it was her death that caused him to build the time machine, so by saving her, the machine would never have existed—he decides to return to the cave, rescue Mara, and alter the future. After releasing Mara, he jams his watch into the machine's controls and sets it working. The result is an explosion that reaches throughout the Morlocks' network of tunnels. Now, however, Alex is trapped in the year 802,701, so he sets forth to build a new life with Mara and Kalen (<a href="/name/nm0612570/">Omero Mumba</a>). Vox is put to work reading stories and teaching English to the Eloi. The screen then splits in two, showing on the right Alex walking with Mara and Kalen through a field that was once Alex's home and on the left Philby (<a href="/name/nm0004692/">Mark Addy</a>) and Mrs Watchit (<a href="/name/nm0492373/">Phyllida Law</a>) strolling through the same area as it exists in 1903. Since Alex has disappeared, Philby asks Mrs Watchit whether she would be willing to become his housekeeper, at least until Alex returns, and Watchit agrees. The camera then pans around Alex's study, stopping at a view of the street outside the window. Philby walks past and tosses his bowler away. Yes.
