What happens

A Sound of Thunder is a 2005 science fiction thriller film directed by Peter Hyams. It is based on the 1952 short story of the same name by Ray Bradbury. The film stars Edward Burns, Catherine McCormack, and Ben Kingsley. It follows "time tourists" who accidentally interfere too much with the past, completely altering the present. A Sound of Thunder was released in the United States on September 2, 2005, by Warner Bros. Pictures. The film failed at the box office, earning only $11.8 million against a production budget of $80 million, and was largely panned by critics, who criticized its cheap special effects, uninvolved performances, scientific errors and choppy logic, and the lack of faithfulness to the source material.
