Timecop (1994)

Jean-Claude VanDamme plays the good cop in this movie about 
time travel and political corruption. A good picture of the 
willingness of politicians to go to any length to achieve 
their goals, this film fell far short of a thumbs-up rating 
on a MIM scale of revolutionary politics. The bad senator 
tries to use time travel to make himself wealthy enough to 
buy the presidency. He is willing to murder and steal to 
achieve his ends, and he succeeds in buying off much of the 
time police force to help him out. But he is the only 
corrupt politician in the movie. When he is eliminated, 
everyone can live happily ever after. A far cry from the 
reality of capitalist politics, this movie preaches the 
typical liberal dogma that we just need to get rid of a few 
bad politicians and then things will be ok. Revolutionaries 
know better and are clear that it is the system that breeds 
the bad politician, not the genetic makeup of their 
parents. Go see this movie for the action and adventure, 
not for the politics.
