Frequent Star Trek actor and director Jonathan Frakes gets behind the camera again for this teen-sci-fi/action-drama in the Back to the Future (1985) mold. Jesse Bradford stars as Zak Gibbs, a teenager who discovers the latest invention to spring from the mind of his scientist father (Robin Thomas) and a research team that includes his dad's eccentric colleague Dr. Earl Dopler (French Stewart). It seems that they have developed a wristwatch that manipulates hypertime, speeding up the passage of regular time 25 times for the wearer and those near him, making it appear that the rest of the world has become essentially frozen in time. Zak is delighted with the ability that he initially treats as the ultimate gag and superpower, until the National Security Agency begins pursuing both him and the device, intending to confiscate it for nefarious political purposes. Clockwatchers (2002) co-stars Michael Biehn, Paula Garces, and Julia Sweeney. ~ Karl Williams, All Movie Guide.

Director Jonathan Frakes (Star TrekTM: Insurrection, Star TrekTM: First Contact) deftly mixes laughs with thrills in the sci-fi adventure film Clockstoppers. Zak Gibbs (Jesse Bradford, Hackers) is an ordinary teenager who suddenly obtains extraordinary powers when he stumbles upon a mysterious wristwatch-type device that can literally stop time in its tracks! To Zak, it's the perfect gadget to impress Francesca (Paula Garces, Dangerous Minds), the beautiful new foreign exchange student at school. But to those more passionately familar with the incredible timepiece - a hapless scientist (French Stewart, 3rd Rock from the Sun) and his sinister boss (Michael Biehn, The Terminator) - the ultimate power of the entire world literally lies in the hands of whomever possesses the amazing apparatus. They want it back - at any cost - and that's when Zak and Francesca find themselves unwittingly swept into a thrilling, high-tech race against time!
