A TEENAGER DISCOVERS A MYSTERIOUS MACHINE THAT ALLOWS HIM TOFREEZE TIME. NOW, HE'S USING HIS NEW FOUND DEVICE TO GET A FEWTHINGS FOR HIMSELF.Who hasn't fantasized about being able to stop time and move things around? A watch with this power drops into the hands of Zak (Jesse Bradford), a teenager who yearns for speed. He uses it to impress Francesca (Paula Garces), the beautiful girl he's got a crush on, but soon they both find themselves running from a government agency led by a ruthless executive (Michael Biehn from
The Terminator) who wants the watch at all costs.
Clockstoppers suffers from a lack of any internal logic, but the basic idea fuels a reasonably swift story and some decent special effects. The soundtrack is unusually strong, with pop offerings from ! Blink 182, Sugar Ray, Smash Mouth, and others. Also featuring French Stewart (
Love Stinks) as a hapless scientist and Julia Sweeney (
It's Pat,
God Said "Ha!") as Zak's mother.
