Undoubtedly, this film is a wonderfully crafted sci-fi for its age. The care that has gone into the sets, acting and script is illustrated in a colourful and well-detailed way during the film. Throughout, it's visual effects are effective, and the thoroughness that has been implemented into both costume design and sets in this modernised age becomes appreciative. Thus, the story is finely written and provides a viewing which is comfortable and easy to follow for all viewers. I found this film very enjoyable to watch and recommend this to anyone who is both into sci-fi and classic films.

The classic H.G. Wells story in a very well made movie. Actually, I think this is by far the best version yet made from the classic novel. Even the dated special effects can be accepted because e the story is good.

Really enjoyed this movie. It's a very faithful adaptation of the book (as far as I remember it). Both in the book and in the movie, I really LOVE the beginning, a great way to set up the story and hear different opinions on time travel. I loved that this movie shows the World Wars. It wasn't in the book ofcourse but it makes sense to stop there and it was done very well. The year 300.000-something itself was less interesting for me than the first half hour orso. I don't remember that ending being in the book but in any case I like it. Probably a masterpiece at its time, I dont love the movie as a whole but I do think it's an excellent adaptation.
