What a delightful little film. The trio that makes up the cast are each charming in their own way: Malcolm McDowell is perfect as H.G. Wells, Steenburgen is once again proving herself as the sweetest person in cinema, and David Warner plays version of Jack the Ripper that fittingly seems to be more from the 1970's than any time in the century before.

Dá pra ver porque deram a direção de A Ira de Kahn para o Meyer e colocaram a Mary Steenburgen (nunca tinha notado o quanto ela se parece a Kate Bush!) no De Volta para o Futuro 3, mas uma das frases finais me incomodou deveras: a respeito de todas as épocas são horrivelmente iguais e só o amor nos faria viver através delas, só um homem branco sem a mínima consciência diria isso.

McDowell and Warner are great. The film was quite funny immediately after the arrival in San Francisco, and at various instances afterwards. Horrendously outdated visual effects. Many faults in the writing too, although gripping pre-finale. An enjoyable film, but nothing great.

based on the cast, director, & the synopsis, i definitely let my expectations for this film get wildly out of hand. the cast certainly comes through. warner is great, mcdowell does innocence surprisingly well. the problem is that it drags pretty badly. i also expected more humor, or at least a sense of tongue-in-cheek. also, something is missing in the threat and menace of jack the ripper. i'm not suggesting more graphic murders, but something def missing. still an ok film for fans of the cast

This film definitely has it's weaknesses, but I just love it. Malcolm McDowell is so sweet and charming - and David Warner is the very manifestation of Jack the Ripper. It's David Warner's showcase role, in my opinion.
Great b-movie fun!

With a plot like that, how the hell could I not want to see this? The film has its fair share of problems though. Mostly to do with pacing. In the middle of trying to find Jack the Ripper, Wells has a romance with a woman he meets, and it just feels a bit weird. It's all taken a bit too seriously sometimes. Add bad visual effects and pretty lame action sequences, and you've got a pretty average movie. Nevertheless, I still enjoyed the ride, and I don't think I wasted my time at all.

Finally someone is willing to sit down and explain the intricacies of time travel to me in layman term. Here's how it breaks down: when you rotate west it sends you to the future, east makes you back in time. Simple. Now onto magnets and global warming...

After seeing the premise of this movie, how could I not watch it. Malcolm McDowell is acting the damn fool, and Mary Steenbergen falls in love with YET ANOTHER time traveller. I kind of didn't like how quickly H.G. Wells got used to the future. He should have been staring at sky scrapers and cars for a larger proportion of the movie. And he DRIVES at the end? Ugh, that's stupid. Basically, the film doesn't live up to its amazing premise, and becomes run of the mill schlock.
