Review of 88 Minutes (2007) by Kevin R — 07 Aug 2009
Yes this is a bad movie but... it has a few worthwhile moments where it does work. I'm sure for those involved the worthwhile moments were cashing paycheques.
Off the start it grabbed me and then it sort of lost me a bit and left me thinking huh? why do movie characters do such dumb things... then it kind of grabbed me a bit again just to sort of dangle me like a blanket covered toddler over a railing. I didn't quite know what to think.
Thinking hard right now I am going to say the story wasn't that bad. The actors involved I know are talented and held up ok in this film. So where do things go wrong? Is the movie too long and slow, to fast and choppy? Some bad dialogue did hurt things, some characters motives weren't well explained and the ending was somehow satisfying but not quite right.
Oh well not that my rating means anything in anyway but I will give it a 60%. I am usually a kind reviewer and am going to remain so with this film.
