Storyline
When the ability to travel through time is perfected, a new type of law enforcement agency is formed. It's called Time Enforcement Commission or TEC. A cop, Max Walker, is assigned to the group. On the day he was chosen, some men attack him and kill his wife. Ten years later Max is still grieving but has become a good agent for the TEC. He tracks down a former co-worker who went into the past to make money. Max brings him back for sentencing but not after telling Max that Senator McComb, the man in charge of TEC, sent him. Max has his eye on McComb. Written by rcs0411@yahoo.com

A major plot point to the movie is that "the same matter cannot occupy the same space". According to the tagline, Max's wife was murdered 10 years prior. Over 10 years, the human body does not contain much of the same matter it did when it started. Especially since the body is approximately 72% water, which is constantly being replenished. Add to this the food which is consumed that contributes to cell repairs, and very little "old mass" remains. Hence when Max throws the Senator at himself at the conclusion of the movie, nothing should have happened, other than the Senators bouncing off each other. See more »Quotes

"DOES ANYBODY REALLY KNOW WHAT TIME IT IS?"Written by Robert Lamm

Timecop is a pretty hilarious movie, and it has all the trademarks of a
Tapert/Raimi film (i.e., the guys who brought you Evil Dead, Hercules,
Xena, Jack of All Trades...). It's definitely a big-screen movie, but they have some fun, even including dialogue that pokes fun at Jean-Claude's at times unintelligible accent. There are some decent martial arts set pieces, they don't spend too long on the time travel aspects (which is about par for the course for the guys who did time travel in Evil Dead, Hercules, and Xena...). Ron Silver makes a suitably sinister villain, but Bruce McGill steals the show as the protagonist's somewhat befuddled but loyal boss. There are the usual holes that accompany any time travel story, and a weird ending. With the feel-good ending, no one seems to realize that Max won't recall the last 10 years of his married life and time raising his kid! Still, it's a pretty good, not too deep, enjoyable movie.
