Storyline

The NSA-funded QT (Quantum Tech) Corporation has slated a project to develop Hypertime, a technology which allows the user's molecules to speed up to the point where the world appears to be standing still. After realizing that such technology could also be used against the USA, the NSA orders the project stopped. However, the research is farther along than the NSA expected and Henry Gates, the head of QT, plans on using the technology to usurp the leader of the NSA and dominate the world. He uses the prototype to stretch the weekend in order to give the brilliant lead scientist time to fix the remaining glitch in the technology. However, he has to deal with three determined teenagers who have accidentally come into possession of a Hypertime device in the form of a plastic wristwatch.When the teens accidently activate hypertime they have some fun...like anyone would with that kind of power.But when Henry finds out about the watch,he personally takes a prototype hypertime watch and ransacks his house in hypertime looking for the watch. The teens learn that the watch is wanted to control the world they get taken on a wild adventure through both time and hypertime. “NSA” redirects here. ...

"Clockstoppers" is an atrociously bad movie for a variety of reasons - thin characters, poor acting, a script that bends the rules whenever it wants to, and the fact that it's just plain boring - but the worst part is the patronizing attitude behind it all.
The movie reminds you of that annoying uncle you had when you were a kid, the one who would pat you on the head and tell you that someday, when you're older, you'd understand but for now you should go play with your toys or something.
