The Time Machine (2002)

What's done is done and can't be undone. Or can it? Determined to undo a devastating personal tragedy that occurred four years ago, Alexander Hartdegen builds a fabulous apparatus of spinning wheels and brass gears that can propel him through time. Now boarding for destinations past and to come: The Time Machine, a dazzlingly inventive sci-fi adventure directed by Simon Wells and based on the classic novel (previously brought to the screen in 1960) by Wells great-grandfather H.G. Wells. Guy Pearce plays Hartdegen, an inventor from early 1900s New York who, after his foray into the past, sets his course for the future...and accidentally hurtles 800,000 years into a primitive paradise where he may be able to rescue what's left of humanity from certain doom. Time flies when you're having fun even more so when watching this imaginative movie! breathlessly
