The Time Machine
The greatest adventure THROUGH all time!
Directed by Simon Wells
Produced by DreamWorks Pictures, Warner Bros. Pictures
A speculative adventure that uses time travel and a distant future to explore themes of human division and the limits of changing fate, balancing wonder with darker implications.
Hoping to alter the events of the past, a 19th-century inventor instead travels 800,000 years into the future, where he finds mankind divided into two warring races.
