Character mistake: Early in the story Dr. Gibbs rationalises the story to come by using two cars traveling the road at greatly different speeds to illustrate "Einstein's theory of relativity". He basically says that the slower moving car seems to stand still as seen from the much faster car's point of view. But in real Einsteinian relativity, just the opposite happens. When two reference frames are traveling with respect to each other, each sees the other's time advancing more quickly.
Clockstoppers (2002)
1 character mistake
Directed by: Jonathan Frakes
Starring: Michael Biehn, Jesse Bradford, French Stewart, Paula Garces
Other mistake: When the young couple goes into town everything is moving very slow, almost as if they are frozen. When they are looking at the Mustang, look in the background. The guy standing still has become a victim of wind. Notice his shirt flapping in "real time" and not "hyper time". If everything is slow then how come the guy's shirt is blowing in the wind?
Dr. Earl Dopler: I love my country. Now give me the watch so I can go to Costa Rica.
Trivia: Jonathan Frakes (the director) makes a QUICK cameo. When they are at the science fair working behind the curtain, notice Jonathan Frakes sitting at the table/booth when Zach moves across the screen.
