However, when another TEC makes physical contact with his younger self, the agent is wiped out of existence, causing a chain reaction in the timeline that frees Miller from incarceration, who then quickly sets about assassinating the ancestors of every TEC agent, allowing him to alter the past unabated. However, one of the Society’s most idealistic agents, Brandon Miller, is determined to undo the atrocities of the past, and TEC agent Ryan Chan narrowly thwarts Miller’s attempted assassination of Hitler in Nazi Germany, with Miller’s wife, Sasha, tragically being killed in the process. TEC operates in tandem with the Society for Historical Authenticity, created to serve as a check on rogue TEC agents. In the year 2025, the Time Enforcement Commission (TEC) continues to police time travel in order to prevent the catastrophic ramifications that can be wrought upon the future if the past were to be altered.
Ryan pays a visit to the Wild West Danger concerns John Beck tackles the role of the TEC’s head officer O’Rourke, while Kenneth Choi and Wen Yann Shih portray Ryan’s parents, Josh and Cyndi, with Sam Ly taking on the role of Ryan as a child. Tricia Barry portrays Miller’s wife, Sasha, while Tava Smiley and Josh Hammond assume the role of Ryan’s TEC partners, Tyler Jeffers and Michael Travis, whilst Mary Page Keller appears in the role of the team’s medical support technician, Doc. Jason Scott Lee steps into the role of Time Enforcement Commission (TEC) agent Ryan Chan, who finds himself at odds with his idealistic fellow timecop, Brandon Miller, played by Thomas Ian Griffith.
However, despite a significantly lower budget and much smaller scale than its predecessor, “Timecop 2” proves itself a fun little sci-fi romp, elevated considerably by the commanding presence of its leading man and villain. “A low budget sequel to a 90’s blockbuster, based on a little known Dark Horse comic book, with none of the original cast” doesn’t exactly sound like the kind of thing to inspire investors to greenlight a project in the pre-Netflix era. The pitch meeting for “Timecop 2: The Berlin Decision” must have been intimidating, to say the least.
