Why I watched this until the end, I'll never know., 29 April 2000
3/10
Author: Ken Varnum (varnum@alumni.grinnell.edu) from Ann Arbor, Michigan

Three words to describe this movie (with apologies to Dr. Seuss): stink, stank, stunk. A complete absence of intelligible plot, shoddy and/or wooden acting, a silly premise, and the most hopelessly convoluted time-travel paradox I've had the displeasure of seeing, all combine to make this one stinker of a movie. Where's Mystery Science Theater 3000 when you need them?
