In six hours they'll be history.

In an Arizona desert a man wanders in a daze, speaking words that make no sense. Within 24 hours he's dead, his body swiftly cremated by his only known associates. Halfway around the world archaeologists make a shocking discovery at a medieval digging site. Suddenly they are swept off to the headquarters of a secretive multinational corporation that has developed an astounding technology. Now this group is about to get a chance not to study the past but to enter it. And with history opened to the present, the dead awakened to the living, these men and women will soon find themselves fighting for their very survival - six hundred years ago.

Theatrical report

Timeline is one of those half-thought-out science fiction action adventure flicks that combine a bunch of clichés with a bunch of low-level (but recognisable) Hollywood-type actors and some computer generated special effects. Which is to say that it's a hoot! As long as you don't go taking any of it seriously. Like archaeologists who also happen to be full-on sword masters. Mmmm. Yeah. See that a lot.
