Timecop

Timecop is an entertaining action film; at any rate it is good enough that I can bear to look at the 'Muscles from Brussels' for 100 minutes.

The film has an exciting plot, though you should not start pondering the logic of time travel. The policeman Max Walker is a timecop, whose job is to prevent people from travelling back in time to change it. The plot's present is 2004, when Max has good reason to suspect that a powerful senator, McComb, has his own time machine and is changing the past so that he can become president in 2004. McComb's ambitions and Max's attempts to stop him turn out to be connected to a tragic event in 1994, when an attempt was made on Max's life and his wife perished in the flames of their house. Since it is Jean-Claude van Damme who plays the timecop, there can be no doubt about the outcome of events.
