Pal's version of /The Time Machine/ is -- awful. No, seriously, read
the book and forget the film, if you can. (The main problem is that it
is obsessed with Nuclear War which, of course, the book knows nothing
of.)

Nuclear war? Wells didn't even know about the Blitz when he wrote it, or
even WWI.
Despite which War in the Air had some on point critiques of Victory
Through Air Power.
