For John Sullivan (Jim Caviezel), there is no question. He would undo the events of October 12, 1969, when the out-of-control Bruxton fire took the life of his father (Dennis Quaid), a heroic firefighter. Now John may get exactly what he wished for -- and much more than he bargained for. Read More Read Less Watch on Fandango at Home Premiered Oct 10 Buy Now

      Spike G Great scfi drama also its underrated Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/06/24 Full Review Sangeeta B Brilliant Masterpiece 😊👏🥳🎊 Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/21/23 Full Review Martin P Underated. Excellent sci-fi movie with stellar acting all the way around. Historically set scenes with all the trimmings. Old cars, the way people were back then on the East Coast to an ongoing leep ahead to present day troubled culture and world. Plenty of action, heroics, adult scenarios play out. Mixed-up with a real depiction of hard line front line big city detectives going at it. Smoke house old school law enforcement situations playing out all at the same time. In my collection, I watch it at least once a year. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/09/23 Full Review John H This movie was amazing and really keeps you on your toes Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/11/23 Full Review Cut T Spectacular! Perfect trade off of, plot, dialogue and action lining up. The ending is perfect, and this movie ends perfectly, where it should.

      Nell Minow Common Sense Media Scary, tense, grisly mystery-thriller. Rated: 4/5 Dec 24, 2010 Full Review Lisa Alspector Chicago Reader Quaid's buoyant earnestness complements the stunning, low-key performance by Caviezel, whose close-ups give new meaning to the idea that still waters run deep. Jun 6, 2007 Full Review Nick Funnell Time Out This ambitious but frustrating timeshift thriller never quite manages to jam together two distinct stories. Jan 26, 2006 Full Review Tony Black Cultural Conversation Frequency attempts to ground its subject matter in a level of humanity. The message is simple: you *can* go home again. Rated: 3/5 Feb 15, 2021 Full Review Tim Brayton Alternate Ending A film that works for virtually all of its running time on a scene-by-scene basis, but also completely fails to work as a holistic object. Rated: 2.5/5 Sep 5, 2019 Full Review David Nusair Reel Film Reviews It's an appealingly out-there premise that's employed to perpetually captivating effect by filmmaker Gregory Hoblit...
