moderately interesting

Rating: 6/10 (28 June 2007)

it was OK, except having read Pastwatch: the Redemption of Christopher Columbus, the whole viewing the past, time travel and alternative history scenario is covered in that book
in fact it felt like the movie borrowed heavily from that maybe if I hadn't read the book, I would have liked the movie more
I also didn't like the fact that Denzel's character fell in love with the female character in the movie as this seemed unrealistic and obsessive and the happy Hollywood ending where everyone lives happily ever after
If you want to explore the concept of time travel and alternative history try Pastwatch instead
