adonis98-743-186503 Two time travelers with opposing views are sent back to the present aboard a research ship in the Antarctic to prevent a global biological disaster from occuring. Despite Dolph Lundgren's attempts on saving 'Retrograde' is very convoluted and hardly makes any actual sense and believe me back in the day i actually kinda liked it but unfortunately some movies don't quite hold up and this one definitely doesn't. The storyline was a huge mess and i don't mean that in a good way plus Lundgren deserves way better than films like this one. (5/10)

unbrokenmetal "Retrograde" aka "Time Travelers" is a typical B movie, I had low expectations, but in the end it wasn't too bad. Dolph Lundgren plays a guy from the year 2200 who travels back to our time to avoid the discovery of an alien virus who killed most of mankind till 2200. The meteor which brought the virus to Earth was discovered by the crew of a ship near Antarctica. Now there's no denying we have loads of rubbish in this movie: they are searching for microorganisms in a lab that isn't sterile at all, the spaceship can also travel through time just like that, day and night near the South Pole last 12 hours each, and the hero's enemies don't really make sense when they try and stop him on his mission. However, he is in an interesting situation as he tries to protect the ship's crew, but on the other hand can't tell them he's from the future, so they only know he must be hiding something from them. Lots of fighting going on which one expects in a Dolph movie, and then there's the hostile environment and the nasty virus - a scratch could kill you. So... it isn't "The Thing", but I've seen worse.

AnonymousReviewer Even though not on Region 1 DVD, it's worth a look if you like Dolpgh Lundgren movies. It's basically a sci/action movie about time travel to the past to save the earth. Dolph Lundgren is a scientist in this one believe it or not. This seems like a made for television movie, it's a low budget film. What this movie lacks in plot, it gains in action. The space crew wear uniforms that look like motorcycle leathers. Surprised that this didn't have a US release considering how popular direct to video movies are. I also recommend The Mechanik (The Russian Specialist) , starring Lundgren as well. I bought the Region 5 PAL DVD, it has a few trailers (in Russian though). Full frame and 5.1 English Audio sound.

drmkeeper I'm not sure, if I can write a review of this movie. But still I'll try. First: I watched about 30 minutes of it. I couldn't watch any longer. Second: it's terrible. For everyone who's gonna see it anyway, I must say: The movie has very low-budget special effects & very bad acting (just awful). When I say very low-budget I mean VERY-VERY cheap. I've seen video games with better computer graphics. The acting… I'm not sure anymore, if this is the guy who acted in Universal Soldier or Punisher. This is not even acting. It's like a school performance… And I'm not talking about such things like fights or shootings in this movie… - no comments. There is scene in Retrograde where all characters in a spaceship fell on the floor because of the spaceship's twisting... In space!!!! Just think about it… So that's what I can say about first 30 minutes of this film. You may consider it as review of Retrograde's first 30 minutes. 1 of 10.
