Good movie, but best of all time? Hardly . . .

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Cowboys, time travel and Klaus Kinski, it doesn't get much better than this. This film is one of those little gems that should be watched every Xmas along with The Great Escape and Its a Wonderful Life. Like all good films it starts with tragedy, then a small mystery. The back story is well presented and not complicated; like many I could mention. Also, the story doesn't jump back and too; as is all too common these days. Happy endings don't come any happier, that's all I'm going to say, but is not predictable. Klaus Kinski is a joy to watch with his rolling eyes and tough talking and big cowboy coat. The time traveling is cool and does not involve a Tardis; another bonus.

I probably wouldn't have commented on this film. After getting into a discussion about 80's sci-fi movies with a friend, this title popped up. Wow, I thought I was the only one who remembered this flick. Having originally seen this waaaay back in 87' I can say it didn't really get much better with age. That is okay however, as this was blip on the radar. Just one more failed pilot for a series that CBS couldn't avail itself to try producing. It was however a enjoyable effort but one that most viewers could probably see being skewed into a "Voyagers" type programming pigeon-hole had it gone to full series. From what I understand, "Scholastic", the mass media educational powerhouse was to help with the franchise. Alas, it could have not just been entertainment but educational too!

This movie is on constantly on cable. I had the morning off, so I watched it. I have some questions. The evil german guy shot two cops in the professors house... later on the professor and Lauren Hutton don't even mention it. Wouldn't they be prime suspects in a double cop murder? If General Cliff Claven got shot to death by the evil german guy, why doesn't the professor and Lauren Hutton go back in time 5 minutes and warn him? This was another movie, that although it's full of holes and overall a terrible movie, I watched the whole thing. I couldn't... turn... away.
