Waste of a great premise. They go back in time to 1994. Ooooh.

Being a time-travel epic, plot holes abound here, but it's Van Damme's cute little attempt at being the family man that ruins that oh-so-necessary willing suspension of disbelief.

SF specialist Peter Hyams, doubling as usual as director and cinematographer, leaves his record for mediocrity unblemished in this silly time-travel tale.

Top CriticTimecop, a low-rent Terminator, is the kind of movie that is best not thought about at all, for that way madness lies.

Top CriticIn terms of plot and direction, there are loopholes galore and too much in-your-face audience-pummeling for my taste.

Filled with holes, gaps, and the ilk, it's a minor Van Damme, meaning there is some minor fun.

Is it even praise to call a film ‘one of Van Damme’s better efforts’? Try calling your wife’s meatloaf ‘the least nauseating thing I’ve even all week’ and see what she thinks.

Thanks to Hyams' professionalism, Timecop is a slickly-made, fast-paced and mildly-diverting B movie.

Maybe it's the formula, maybe it's all that time travel, but you just can't help thinking you've seen it all before.

Only worth renting if you've got a poker game and a bottle of Jack Daniels going. View it straight and you'll be too busy rolling your eyes to keep up.

Years of tireless persistence have begun to work in Mr. Van Damme's favor. It's hard not to enjoy his energy, even if his acting gifts still leave a lot to be desired.
