The acting is generally wooden, with the exception being West's weird and not entirely successfully acting style. The invisible-to-family scenes are really weird and don't achieve much, although I guess the film does summon up an atmosphere of longing and nostalgia. There's no action here and much of the screen time just consists of a bored astronaut sitting around and waiting for stuff to happen. Imagine it as the thinking man's BUCK ROGERS IN THE 25TH CENTURY, with added 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY thrown in (the guy has a friendly computer, HAL 9000 style, who helps him on his mission). Later in the series, Joe's evil uncle, Mad Jack, makes several attempts to capture the children and The Book with crafty tricks, such as stranding them in Antarctica (since The Book does not work there). It's a neat idea, but the very poor, bargain-level execution helps to sink it. A time warp can be thought of as anything that disrupts the flow of time by making it go faster or slower. After each time warp, the group must find and use The Book in order to return to the present day. Unbelievably, this was written by one 'Anne Spielberg' - sister to Steven, of course. Rocky Horror - Time Warp (Letras y cancin para escuchar) - RiffRaff / Its astounding / Time is fleeting / Madness takes its toll / But listen closely. It's a weird little flick, full of cheesy, cardboard effects and a meandering storyline involving an astronaut who, due to an anomaly in space, is transported back to Earth via time warp which means that nobody can see him because he's living a year in the future. ![]() TIME WARP is a forgotten (deservedly so, some might say) science fiction movie, made for TV and starring BATMAN's Adam West in a supporting role.
