Corrected entry: To freeze others in time, the person with the watch must touch the people he wants to bring into hypertime. In the scene in the vent, Zach, Francesca, and Doppler freeze time with the watch to get through the fan. Doppler backs out and says he's scared to go in and starts to walk away. Zack still had time frozen when he walks away so how does Doppler expect to have a normal life if he's stuck in hypertime with no one to get him out?

Corrected entry: Apparently, the "speed of gravity" seems to change to accommodate both people in "hypertime" and people in normal time throughout the movie. For example, when the bad guy gets shot by the liquid nitrogen filled paintballs, he freezes and thereby gets forced back into normal time. He starts to fall backwards in hypertime, but as he cools and re-enters normal time, he stops mid-fall in the air, as seen from a hypertime perspective. However, the characters in hypertime at the moment still experience gravity at a "normal" rate.

Corrected entry: When the man and woman come to search for Zak in the hospital, Zak looks out of the window and sees them coming in their car (in normal time). Why didn't they just go straight into hypertime, instead of giving Zak the chance to escape?
Correction: Character decision. Not a movie mistake.

Corrected entry: In the scene where the hero comes home in hypertime and finds the QT agents there, he goes back outside and is pulled into the van by Doppler. Why would they put him in hypertime? He would have time to escape, since he can now move as fast as they can. The smart thing to do would be to leave him in real time, as they would be gone for a few seconds, literally.
Correction: It was a decision that they made to leave him in hypertime. Most likely it was because he hates being in hypertime since he spent so much time in it and aged incredibly.

Corrected entry: When the unauthorized hypertime response agents go to get Zak, some of them have liquid nitrogen (which brings people out of hypertime) but some of them don't. Why would the company have hypertime response agents that don't have the one thing that would bring their enemy out of hypertime? If these were simply workers not designated for hypertime response, then why aren't they required to carry nitrogen anyway just in case they *do* have to respond to an unauthorized hypertime user?
Correction: This was a decision made by the people in the movie. Might have been a bad decision, but that doesn't count as a movie mistake.

Correction: Doppler had one of the NO2 guns, which he could have used to go back to normal time by simply shooting himself.
