vik_thorSaw The Time Machine last night with ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
hartree down at the Savoy theaters. I think I give it about 3 stars. Partway through the first time travel sequence, the film stopped and the slides started for a few seconds. Totally threw me out of the mindspace I get into when watching movies, and never really got back into it.
Nice special effects, for the most part, though there were a few points where the cinemephotography was a bit weak. Blurry...
The internal consistancy sorta breaks down, once he gets to the far future, (Eloi & Morlock time) for me...

I can usually easily suspend my disbeleif, and really get involved in the world of the movie. That bit really messed it up for me... not to mention the Eloi/Morlock time period consistancy problems...
I don't think I've ever seen the 1960 version.
For me, the best characters were the secondary. Vox & the ÜberMorlock. (Who seemed to change, at least to me... Different makeup days, possibly...)
