A group of archaeologists must travel back in time to Castlegard, France in 1357 to save a colleague before a battle in the Hundred Years War. Based in Michael Crichton's best selling novel, this movie places less emphasis on how that is done, and more on these archaeologists immersing themselves in the culture, saving their friend, fighting, and racing to get back to the future. All in all, this is an entertaining action movie that won't strain any brain cells. One negative, however, is Paul Walker's lack of acting ability. It is almost painful, but fortunately this is an ensemble movie that doesn't rely solely on him.
