Synopsis

In 1939 Army Air Corps test pilot Daniel McCormick (Gibson) has a perfect job and a woman he loves. But a tragedy suddenly strikes his love, and Daniel's future is snatched away in an instant. Grief-stricken, Daniel volunteers for a top-secret cryogenics experiment--which accidentally puts him into frozen slumber for more than 50 years. He awakens in 1992, lost and alone. But through friendship with a fatherless young boy (Elijah Wood) and the boy's mother (Lee Curtis), Daniel discovers that time waits for no man, but true love waits forever.

  1. Predictable

    06 December 2008
    Mel Gibson’s attempt to distance himself from the wild man image of his Mad Max and Lethal Weapon films is a touching and enjoyable romantic story that contains elements of sci-fi, adventure and comedy. It follows Capt. Daniel McCormick (Mel Gibson), a test pilot who in 1939 asks his best friend Harry Finley to use him as a guinea pig for his cryogenics experiments. He is frozen alive, but instead of being woken one year later as planned, he is brought back in 1992, where he is tries to piece together what happened at the same time as getting to know the people he is staying with, Claire (Jamie Lee Curtis) and Nat Cooper (Elijah Wood). Although the story is slightly predictable, the characters are likeable and Mel Gibson does a good job at playing a romantic lead. It’s also interesting to see his character trying to adapt to the 1990s. A good film for everyone to enjoy.
