Clockstoppers is a 2002 American science fiction action comedy film directed by Jonathan Frakes and produced by Julia Pistor and Gale Anne Hurd. The film centers on future tech "Hypertime" devices which speed up the users' molecules, creating the illusion that time has stopped from the perspective of the users. The story follows teenager Zak Gibbs, who accidentally acquires one of these devices and finds himself on the run from agents of the corporation which created them, all of whom wield Hypertime devices themselves. The film stars Jesse Bradford, Paula Garcés, French Stewart, Michael Biehn, Robin Thomas, and Julia Sweeney.

Produced by Nickelodeon Movies and distributed by Paramount Pictures, the film was released in the United States on March 29, 2002. It received mixed reviews from critics and grossed over $38.8 million against a $26 million budget.
