Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe plot was inspired by H.G. Wells' 1901 story "The New Accelerator," about a scientist who develops a drug enabling him to move so fast that no one can see him. From his viewpoint, everyone else seems frozen in time.
- GoofsThe roof scene is flipped - the writing on signs on both the door and the wall have the text reversed.
- Quotes
Vice Principal: [to bullies] That's a perfectly good trash can. Don't be throwing students at it.
- Crazy creditsThe opening credits are made up of wristwatch components.
- Alternate versionsAlthough the cinema version was intact the UK DVD was cut by 4 secs by the BBFC to remove a 'potentially dangerous imitable technique' (an aerosol can being punctured with a knife) for a PG rating.

Featured review
a fun family movie that despite being a little corny is still fun
And I don't mean corny in a bad way really. This movie was fun all the way though. Some good casting choice. Sure time machine types of films have been done before. But not that many that actually stop time. That's what teenage zak gibbs finds out after accidentally taking his fathers invention and what insures is a fun ride of those that want to get him while trying to win over the heart of Francesca. Altogether it was a nice family comedy/action movie that also had some important lessons to learn.
