Did You Know?

Trivia

The street chase, train station, and subway scenes were all shot in Toronto. All the subway stations depicted are actually the same unused platform. This is why the escalator is shown as dismantled for maintenance when the characters enter the station: it was removed when the platform was closed. See more »

Goofs

Although the car is not torn apart during the crash, it is in two pieces afterwards. See more »

Loved the movie, exciting and technically accurate re time travel
31 October 1999 | by (Katy, TEXAS) – See all my reviews

The movie depicts the possible results of time travelers inadvertently altering future history. Suspenseful, and exciting, it kept me on the edge of my seat. The movie also perpetuates the bumbling image of the FBI. As farfetched as the story line is, it cannot match the caricature of the FBI.
