Timeline Reviews |
Adapted from the daffiest of Michael Crichton's "what if" novels, "Timeline" is an instant contender for cult status on the midnight-movie circuit, where lines like "Do we look like quantum wormhole specialists?" will be given the respect they deserve. [read review]  --Jack Mathews (New York Daily News)
Still, Timeline is a decent adventure with plenty of tense moments and good action, with a finale that is a pyromaniac's wet dream. The acting and directing is good and the story is quickly paced, even if it is at times downright predictable. [read review] 6/10 --Nate Anderson (Movie-Vault.com)
The usually reliable Richard Donner drops the ball with this blurry medieval/time travel/adventure film. Hiring a trio of bad actors, namely the abominable Paul Walker, doesn’t help the veteran director much either. [read review] --Brian Orndorf (FilmJerk.com)
I felt too much of the movie consisted of groups of characters I didn't care about, running down passageways and fighting off enemies and trying to get back to the present before the window of time slams shut [read review]  --Roger Ebert (Chicago Sun-Times)
Shallow characters, bad writing and unrealistic action prevent you from being engaged by the story. Then the low budget means no shallow enjoyment either [read review]  --Carl Lazarevic (MovieWeb)
Timeline is the kind of brain-dead romp that's so unintentionally hilarious, you're likely to crack a rib guffawing. [read review]  --Jamie Russell (BBC Films)
'TIMELINE" is the kind of miserable stinker the studios usually dump into release in January or February. [read review]  --Jonathan Foreman (New York Post)
It’s not all that bad but it’s desperately ordinary, unexceptional, forgettable. [read review]  --Kevin N. Laforest (Montreal Film Journal)
