Clockmaker

This movie. I have no words. Its very amateur. The camera angles are bad. The obvious use of green screen EVERYWHERE is obvious. And where it was used, it was poorly done. The story line made zero sense. Nothing was explained. Many times the music and effects over powered the voices of the actors. The acting was less than spectacular. It was very over done and the script was poorly written. Half the things the dude said didn't make any sense to me or my mother whatsoever. All in all, it was a very unappealing movie. I mean, If you like watching bad movies and pointing all the bad things out, by all means, have at it. But to me, it was excruciatingly painful. And i love pointing things out. SO yeah. Avoid this movie at all costs. You have been warned.

Clockmaker. More like Crapmaker.

This is TRULY awful. I'm all for undemanding fun for kids and adults alike but please, this would insult the intelligence of a two year old.

Low production budgets, fine. Brain dead script not fine.

There is so much wrong with this film that it's impossible to point out individual flaws.

But if I have to then why if computers were invented years early does everything look so bloody awful, they obviously didn't have any CAD programs.

Also a computer manual doesn't tell you how to make micro chips or capacitors etc etc.

Give a chimp a pocket watch and he won't go on to invent an i-pod. Complete crap.

Do not spend anytime watching this dreck.

You have been warned...

Three slum kids snoop in apartment of eccentric clockmaker neighbor and manage to screw up the space-time continuum, so they have to go back in time to 19th century and set things right. Basic premise, that a computer manual accidentally lost in 1880 would lead to a premature electronic revolution and the triumph of fascism, seems more than slightly far-fetched. (If you lost a pocket calculator among a group of Neandertals, would they invent double-entry bookkeeping?) Filmed in Bucharest, with North American leads. Heroine Katie Johnston looks about 15 but quite mature to be hanging around with the two 12-ish boys, but will certainly give younger male SF fans something to check out. Written by frequent Full Moon scripter Benjamin Carr.

Let's get this one on the bottom 100 list as a tribute to its badness. It has everything, cheap special effects, a flimsy plot (That's actually very believable if you happen to be 12 years old) and WAY over-the-top acting. Yep, this movie has it all. The only thing missing is a bad dub for Chinese.

Wow, 10 line minimum comment line? OK.. Here goes. The child actors actually do a good job with what they've been given for an excuse for a script, however it's actually the adults in the screenplay that camp it up to the point of stinkdom on the level of a nursing home after a cabbage dinner. ....

*Flicks cigar* Build me a computer!

Wow, what a bizarre film from Full Moon Studios' label for family entertainment 'Pulse Pounders'. Writer Carr (actually Hollywood guy Neal Marshall Stevens of Thirteen Ghosts 'fame') has been involved in a number of Full Moon flicks including the enjoyable 'Stitches' and 'Sideshow' but generally his fare has been substandard. Here three annoying children, Mary Beth, Henry and Devon are sucked in to a weird world populated by strict men in suits and others wearing strange chemical jackets and face masks. They run around, getting separated and meeting up again many times and eventually get rescued by the Clockmaker whose shop they had broken in to when the trouble started and who it turns out is actually the obese child grown up. Confusing? Indeed. Dull, lifeless and utterly ridiculous this film never rises above poor.
