Help! I've been searching for this movie for years: time travel, betrayal, and the end of time/world!
Hello everyone! I'm desperately searching for a sci-fi movie that has been obsessing me for years. I watched it a while ago, but I vividly remember some scenes, even though the title escapes me completely. I hope you can help me solve this mystery. The movie is about a group of people traveling from the present to the past. I remember that the cars in the "past" were typical of that era, and the "protagonists" used a "time machine" to travel. • The mission and precautions (a crucial detail): The group had a mission in the past, though I don't remember the specific details. The mission was considered very dangerous, and there was a lot of tension among the members. They had received precise instructions: no modern weapons were to be brought to the past, and they were not allowed to interact with people to avoid risking altering the timeline. Additionally, they were not to bring or leave modern objects, nor perform actions that could alter the course of events. • During the mission: At the beginning of the movie or just before the time travel, the character who would turn out to be the traitor wanted to bring a modern weapon. The rest of the group stopped him, explaining the risks of altering the present. • The betrayal (final scene): Immediately after returning to the present and while celebrating the success of the mission, one of them, a member of the group, betrays them. The betrayal happens suddenly and unexpectedly. The group realizes the intentions of the traitor only when it's too late: he has already entered the time machine and is about to leave. They tried to stop him, but it was impossible. He was very fast and cunning. He acted in secret and caught everyone by surprise, even though they were close. When the group realized what was happening, it was too late: he had already left for the past. This character uses the same time machine to return. This is a crucial point I remember well: the betrayal happens almost immediately after returning and the success of the mission. • The street scene (another key point and description of the weapon, final scene): The traitor is on a wide street. The setting was urban: a big city. He brought and used a modern weapon: maybe a grenade or a gun, I don't remember the exact model, but it was clearly a weapon that didn't belong to that era. • The weapons, destruction, and impact on time (the ending and the key of the movie): The traitor uses the modern weapon (maybe a grenade or a gun) and causes instant and total destruction of time/world. It was seen that time/world was vanishing, as if it was being erased. It was a very unsettling visual effect. The destruction manifested as a dissolve, a progressive disappearance of reality. It was as if time itself was retreating, taking everything away. The whole world seemed to dissolve into nothing, as if time itself was self-eliminating. I'm not sure if he caused the total destruction of the world or if he simply altered the present, creating a new timeline of which we don't see the direct consequences. The destruction starts on the street in the background and spreads until the complete annihilation of time itself. In conclusion: The movie ends with this scene of destruction/cancellation/disappearance of time. We don't see the long-term effects on the present and the past, only the most drastic and immediate consequence. Shortly after this event (of time elimination), moments later, the movie ends. If you could please help me find the title of the movie, I would be really grateful. Thank you so much in advance for the help! 🙏
