Performances as a whole are virtually stocky and unmemorable and neither of them manages to set the film alight. Ron Silver's bad guy is utterly bland and has no personality, whatsoever, who is dressed as if he could be mistaken for a banker. It also borrows from The Terminator with the secret romance involving Max and his wife, but I found this stale that also reeked of Lifetime/Hallmark channel movie of the week quality and I just couldn't feel the onscreen chemistry felt between Van Damme and Mia Sara Sara has one particular scene where she is topless. It has a chase sequence that moves from the hospital to a shopping centre, which was okay, but as it went on, the story became more uninteresting that I lost interest. Yes, Van Damme does the splits in his boxer shorts and showing off his then lean physique, but other than that, there isn't much in terms of over-the-top, high-kicking action one expects from the muscles from Brussels. This could have also been a smart, highly- entertaining and engaging sci-fi actioner that is modelled and bears some similarities with Demolition Man unfortunately, it has none of its wit, entertaining action and charismatic performances, notably that of ER actress Gloria Rueben who is terribly wasted as Max Walker's sidekick. Peter Hyams is competent as a director, but in terms of out-&-out action films, whereupon his films are expected to have lots of quality action in spades, he just doesn't deliver. The time travel concept is neat, but this isn't conceived very well and the action is, in contrast to many other Van Damme action films, extremely tame. Being a plot-driven action film also means this is boring and it never really takes the time travel thing to a different level and to be more dynamic and over-the-top. To note, Timecop was written by the same people who did Barb Wire with Pamela Anderson and the forgettable, Darkman sequel, ''Darkman 3: Die, Darkman, Die!''. Produced at $28 million, Timecop is a B-movie that looks lavish and stylish through its visuals, but as a full-on action flick, fails to do enough to be really spectacular.Īfter his wife, Melissa is murdered, cop Max Walker is a time cop from the future, who also works for a special government agency that uses time travel to capture criminals and villains He travels back in time to find his wife's killer, whilst evading capture by those who want him dead.īeing a comic book property, Timecop is far more plot-driven compared to many other Jean-Claude Van Damme films and whilst it is considered as his best effort, it is confusing as hell with a story difficult to wrap one's head around and it has a few plot holes.
