This could have been a great series and I don't understand why they didn't pursue it. With "Quantum Leap" what kept the viewer so engaged was a different venue every time with familiar characters. I really liked this pilot, and I think it's abandonment was a waste of a really very good idea.This one and QL also brought an education to viewers about culture in different times. So interesting, and such a waste to scrap this one.The concept will be brought back at some point, and it will be a popular money-maker.

The military man may have been him, or someone who knew about him and has figured out the truth about that guardian angel. Anyway, when he dresses for frigid weather and lands in another time, there are caves with animal drawings on them. After having witnessed what happened to New York, the military man despaired of humanity being a force for good on earth and went back to the Caves of Lascaux to eliminate the few humans living at that time. So all goes dark in New York and the rest of the world which never came to be, but was spared the destruction that humans created.

This movie follows the same commercial lame recipe.It's basically a copy of NCIS, or NCI, or NCIS-LosAngeles, or NCIS-Florida, or whatever it is all those spin off nonsensical shows are called these days.It's one big caricature that even amateurs can't make as bad as these producers managed to do.This 'movie' is a total waste of watching-time if you like quality-TV.It gets 2 out of 10 because it's about time-travel, but deserves zero out of 10 for it's lameness.I have nothing good to say about this 'movie'. So stereotypical of current commercial TV it's to cry for.Yuck, yuck and more yuck.End-of-review.

But that is to be expected when you Watch a Movie like this one. It still gives what i would call a good value and good Entertainment, maybe not a Movie to buy and put on your shelves, but a good Movie for a thursday evening on Netflix or any other online streaming service.The acting could, like the story, be a Little glitchy from time to time, but i did not find anything catastrophic in there. The actors did a fine job most of the time, and did really good at "living in the moment". All in all, i liked this Movie, my reason to give it such a bad rating was the way the thing ended.
