He puts forth the following idea to his skeptical friends: what if you could travel in the fourth dimension, the dimension of time? <\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"The Time Machine Official Trailer #1 - Rod Taylor Movie (1960) HD\" width=\"625\" height=\"469\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/36UQCZEsY9g?feature=oembed&#038;wmode=opaque\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>Story<\/h3>\n<p>George, a well meaning, inquisitive type, proceeds to do just that, using his time travelling machine to arrive at various points in history. Eventually, he ends up thousands of years into the future, where he encounters simple minded, uneducated young people who call themselves Eloi.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-27722 size-medium alignright\" title=\"Time machine\" src=\"http:\/\/6toplists.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/The-Time-Machine-1960-300x168.jpg\" alt=\"time travelling machine\" width=\"300\" height=\"168\" \/>They&#8217;re being bred for a sinister purpose by the <a href=\"http:\/\/timemachine.wikia.com\/wiki\/Morlocks\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Morlocks<\/a>, glowing eyed hairy beasts that dwell underground. George, the kind of person who wants to do good in the world, tries to motivate the seemingly helpless Eloi to fight back against their aggressors.<\/p>\n<h3>Production<\/h3>\n<p>&#8220;The Time Machine&#8221; is a colourful, gorgeously shot sci-fi adventure that gets a lot of mileage out of the charismatic central performance by Taylor. The beautiful <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm0590796\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Mimieux<\/a> (Weena) is utterly enchanting as his love interest and one can easily understand why George would be so smitten.<\/p>\n<p>The special effects are extremely well done, and famed producer George Pal, doubling here as director, gives the film an adequate but unhurried pace.<\/p>\n<div id=\"quote_shortcode\" class=\"sixtop-post-quote post-quote-right\" >\n<div class=\"quote-sign-box hidden-on-desktop\"><\/div>\n<p>        &ldquo; The special effects are extremely well done &rdquo;<\/p>\n<div id=\"quote_shortcode_after\">\n        <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<h3>Cast<\/h3>\n<p>The strong supporting cast also includes <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm0949241\/?ref_=nmbio_bio_nm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Alan Young<\/a> (who plays both David and James Filby), Sebastian Cabot, Tom Helmore, and Whit Bissell as Georges&#8217; doubting associates. Doris Lloyd plays housekeeper Mrs. Watchett, and that&#8217;s an uncredited Paul Frees supplying the voices of the talking rings.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=x3DyZ1jPmlQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Russell Garcias&#8217; music<\/a> score is rousing and the design of the Time Machine itself and the creepy Morlock antagonists is impressive. The nuclear destruction of London, complete with volcanic eruption, is memorable.<\/p>\n<p>As he arrives at each point in time, George sees some of the worst examples of humanity, and some of its darkest periods, so his mindset by the conclusion is plausible. This is an inherently likable character with sufficient rooting interest.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/gp\/product\/B00IK9NIJI\/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=6toplist-21&amp;camp=1634&amp;creative=6738&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;creativeASIN=B00IK9NIJI&amp;linkId=0fce06f4029420554506d75f89d546fc\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-105976\" src=\"http:\/\/6toplists.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/amazon-buyit2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"270\" height=\"108\" srcset=\"https:\/\/6toplists.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/amazon-buyit2.png 320w, https:\/\/6toplists.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/amazon-buyit2-300x120.png 300w, https:\/\/6toplists.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/amazon-buyit2-250x100.png 250w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 270px) 100vw, 270px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>9th: The Butterfly Effect<\/h2>\n<p class=\"formatted-entry-p\">The Butterfly Effect is a time travel psychological thriller film who features Ashton Kutcher (as the lead actor) and Amy Smart. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.abarim-publications.com\/ChaosTheoryIntroduction.html#.VQk5AuFc4UI\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Chaos theory<\/a> tells us that small events can cause grave consequences. It tells us that the flap of a butterfly\u2019s wings in Brazil can set off a Tornado in Texas. Its title is highly related to the butterfly effect. <\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"The Butterfly Effect (2004) Trailer\" width=\"625\" height=\"469\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/B8_dgqfPXFg?feature=oembed&#038;wmode=opaque\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Also, this hypothetical effect illustrates that no matter how small the initial differences may be, they can lead to big and unforeseen repercussions over time.

Although it has an interesting premise, the story fails considering that there were plot holes in it and it is basically flawed. Also, it was sort of sloppily conceived and unevenly paced.<\/p>\n<p>Added to that, it gets sidetracked to sex and violence as it resorts to gratuitous piece of <a href=\"http:\/\/6toplists.com\/best-fifty-shades-of-grey-sex-advices\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">sadism, sexuality<\/a> or sleaziness.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/gp\/product\/B00MTJLS5Q\/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=6toplist-21&amp;camp=1634&amp;creative=6738&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;creativeASIN=B00MTJLS5Q&amp;linkId=ed0eae4b7496b5c1c0b00ce2d7db63fa\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-105976\" src=\"http:\/\/6toplists.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/amazon-buyit2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"270\" height=\"108\" srcset=\"https:\/\/6toplists.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/amazon-buyit2.png 320w, https:\/\/6toplists.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/amazon-buyit2-300x120.png 300w, https:\/\/6toplists.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/amazon-buyit2-250x100.png 250w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 270px) 100vw, 270px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>8th: D\u00e9j\u00e0 vu<\/h2>\n<p class=\"formatted-entry-p\">This is a great time travel idea that handles time travel more subtle than most.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"D\u00e9j\u00e0 Vu - Trailer (HD)\" width=\"625\" height=\"352\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/oz1hv1u0DXc?feature=oembed&#038;wmode=opaque\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>The Story<\/h3>\n<p>A ferryboat packed with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nimitz.navy.mil\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">USS Nimitz<\/a> sailors and families gets blown up in New Orleans during Mardi Gras.

It is an intriguing concept from beginning to end, and one has to give much credit to director Tony Scott, who manages to seamlessly weave all the intricate pieces together making it very rounded well constructed piece of entertainment.<\/p>\n<p>Although the closing ties things up a little too nicely in terms of Doug Carlin&#8217;s &#8216;duplicate&#8217; it still manages to inject some ambiguity into the end.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/gp\/product\/B00OZ3UGN4\/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=6toplist-21&amp;camp=1634&amp;creative=6738&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;creativeASIN=B00OZ3UGN4&amp;linkId=a0a32cd500c626f8593dfffe37c282f6\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-105976\" src=\"http:\/\/6toplists.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/amazon-buyit2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"270\" height=\"108\" srcset=\"https:\/\/6toplists.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/amazon-buyit2.png 320w, https:\/\/6toplists.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/amazon-buyit2-300x120.png 300w, https:\/\/6toplists.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/amazon-buyit2-250x100.png 250w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 270px) 100vw, 270px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>7th: Looper<\/h2>\n<p class=\"formatted-entry-p\">Inventive, extremely fun, and unbelievably smart, Looper is an awesome futuristic thriller.

The hit men, or loopers as they&#8217;re called, get paid handsomely in silver for their hits.<\/p>\n<p>If they have to kill their future self, they get paid in gold and live out the rest of their days (up to the point they&#8217;re sent back) how they like. That is called closing the loop.<\/p>\n<h3>Performance<\/h3>\n<p>This film is amazing from the start.
