What kind of time-travel story is this?
Time travel drives much of the story.
Meets the archive’s time-travel criteria. The mechanism is classified as Mechanical.
Why the archive makes this assessment (spoilers)
Confirmed 7/10: in 2100, survivors of a catastrophe, including Professor Brin, his daughter Ariel and security man Jack Harris, travel back to the late 1990s to stop Dr Levine's Prometheus project, which draws energy from the Earth's core and destroys civilisation. A mission to change the past drives the film, as in comparable archive entries.
The Nautilus submarine functions as a time machine used to prevent civilization's destruction.

How Titan works
Titan combines the archive’s quality, audience and legacy base with the significance of time travel. It is an index, not a score out of 100, and is distinct from the FMV archive’s scoring model.
Titan = base × [0.20 + 0.80 × (time-travel score ÷ 10)²]
This film: 16.17 base × 59.2% weighting.
Partial inputs flag incomplete source metadata. Provisional weighting flags a time-travel assessment that remains uncertain; it receives no additional confidence penalty.
