Review of Nick of Time (1995) by Danny S — 15 Sep 2007
The clock is ticking for Johnny Depp in Nick of Time, a twist-filled, race-again...(read more...)st-time thriller directed by John Badham And indeed it is a race, filmed in "real time" so that onscreen events unfold minute by nail-biting minute as they would in real life.
No sooner does accountant Gene Watson (Depp) arrive at L.A.'s Union station with his six-year-old daughter than he's plunged into a nightmare. Two shadowy strangers (Christopher Walken, Roma Maffia) separate Watson from his little girl, slap a gun into his hand and present a devil's bargain: kill a top government official before she leaves a nearby political rally.
.. or never again see his beloved child.
