I caught this on Amazon and loved it! So much happens in a subtle way as the film goes forward, I felt I needed to watch it again. I'm glad I did. There were a number of things I totally missed. This is an excellent film for anyone who enjoys thinking about the subject of time travel.

Very Cleverly done
A History of Time Travel is a very clever , fictional documentary about the creation of the worlds first time machine, the men who created it, and the unintended ramifications it has on world events.
It takes a few minute to get into this film . Or should I say adjust to it .
It's telling a fiction story about a family who invent a time machine but because they try to go back and change time the fictional documentary changes with it.
The changes are very subtle.
It might be the posters on the walls , badges of their lapels or the colour the countries are coloured in , on the globe but they are constantly changing , as is the story .
It's basically a group of fictional talking heads explaining how , why and when and it's adapting as time is distorted .
Although the production value feels very cheap , I really liked this .
It makes your head hurt at times , trying to get your head around time travel and what can happen when you mess with it .
I'd like to see something like this remade but with a much bigger budget .
Who knows ? In Time that might just happen...
Brilliant!!!
On the evening of Oct. 30, 1938, Orson Welles, while on the radio, he read H.G. Welles' "War of the Worlds," saying that evil Martians had invaded New Jersey. As silly as this sounds, there were people, listening to the farce as gospel and becoming panicky. Silly fools. I move on. As far as comparing this flick with a typical 'big-house' cinematic extravaganza, I admit it is not really a fair comparison, but not that ridiculous. This joke-umentary is outstanding. One needs to really watch this movie. If you don't closely watch the movie you will miss all the intended flaws, (how many stars does that general have, read all the headlines, a video of setting a bomb). When you miss the flaws, you will miss the very clever sense of humor Ricky Kennedy. I actually need to watch this flick again. Why you say? Well at first thought this might be someone else's reality and produced as a serious research project. It wasn't until I noticed the obvious errors , did I start looking closer. Come on guys, this is a brilliant comedy. I love it.
