Clockstoppers
Until now, Zak Gibbs' greatest challenge has been to find a way to buy a car. But when he discovers an odd wristwatch amidst his father's various inventions and slips it on -- something very strange happens. The world around him seems to come to a stop, everything and everybody frozen in time. Zak quickly learns how to manipulate the device and he and his quick-witted and beautiful new friend, Francesca, start to have some real fun.
Critics Sentiment
Zak activates Hypertime and shows Francesca the watch's power
Gates sends henchmen with nitrogen guns to recover prototype
The film peaks during the initial Hypertime discovery and demonstration but crashes when generic villain plotting takes over
Clockstoppers earns consistent praise for its spectacular time-manipulation special effects and fascinating premise, but critics universally pan the juvenile dialogue, plot holes, and unconvincing performances. The sentiment peaks during the early Hypertime sequences before declining as the generic chase plot takes precedence over the creative concept.
