Goofs:
Plot holes: The purpose of the Time Enforcement Commission is to prevent time-travelers from changing the past. Yet no mention is made of Walker's destructive tendencies, such as firing lasers in front of hundreds of people in 1928, and beating up people in the past. Not to mention, none of these events seems to have any effect on the future. more

It's a Tapert/Raimi film - what's not to like?, 6 June 2001
8/10
Author: Gislef from Iowa City, IA

Timecop is a pretty hilarious movie, and it has all the trademarks of a

Tapert/Raimi film (i.e., the guys who brought you Evil Dead, Hercules,

Xena, Jack of All Trades...). It's definitely a big-screen movie, but they have some fun, even including dialogue that pokes fun at Jean-Claude's at times unintelligible accent. There are some decent martial arts set pieces, they don't spend too long on the time travel aspects (which is about par for the course for the guys who did time travel in Evil Dead, Hercules, and Xena...). Ron Silver makes a suitably sinister villain, but Bruce McGill steals the show as the protagonist's somewhat befuddled but loyal boss. There are the usual holes that accompany any time travel story, and a weird ending. With the feel-good ending, no one seems to realize that Max won't recall the last 10 years of his married life and time raising his kid! Still, it's a pretty good, not too deep, enjoyable movie.
