Critics' reviews
- "Not exactly H.G. Wells, but sturdy and effective. (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of four)"
- "Amazingly stilted before accelerating into its exciting finish"
- "The worst news isn't that this Time Machine is lacking in humanity. It's that screenwriter John Logan has been given the job of writing the next Star Trek movie, Nemesis. That is bad news for the Enterprise gang."
- "The best thing about the new film of H.G. Wells's The Time Machine is the machine"
- "A witless recycling of the H.G. Wells story"
