H.G. Wells's vaunted time-travel tale is brilliantly retold in this thrilling sci-fi film starring Guy Pearce (L.A. Confidential) as a man driven by tragedy to create a machine that can travel back to the past...and into the future! Seeking to alter his painful past, mathematician Alexander Hartdegan (Pearce) invents a time machine. However, an accident during Alexander's test run sends him more than 800,000 years into the future to a strange world in which man has become two distinct races: the peaceful Eloi and the violent underground Morlocks. Jeremy Irons co-stars as the evil Morlock leader and Samantha Mumba is the attractive Eloi whom Alexander must save from the clutches of the Morlocks. Also with Orlando Jones, Mark Addy and Yancey Arias. Directed by Simon Wells, the real-life great-grandson of H.G. Wells. (PG13) (AC,V)
