mathisdiabate-85225 Un film pour rien. Tout est nul du début à la fin.
SnoopyStyle It's 1997. Serial killer Seattle Slayer murders Joanie Cates with her twin sister Janie surviving. Forensic psychiatrist and college professor Jack Gramm (Al Pacino) testifies and sends Jon Forster (Neal McDonough) to death row for the crime. Then another girl is murdered with the same MO. The question becomes whether this is a copycat, or a companion killer, or that Forster is actually innocent. The latest victim was Jack Gramm's student and patient. Shelly Barnes (Amy Brenneman) is his loyal assistant. Kim Cummings (Alicia Witt), Lauren Douglas (Leelee Sobieski) and Mike Stempt (Ben McKenzie) are some of his students. Then he gets a call telling him that he has 88 minutes to live. Dean Johnson (Deborah Kara Unger) tells the class about a bomb threat and he notices somebody had written 76 minutes to live. So it goes.It's never really set up how a forensic psychiatrist sends somebody to death row all by himself. There needs to be some kind of explanation at the start. It needs to show him at his work. Without a proper setup, it's all muddy. I couldn't buy into Al Pacino's character and I couldn't care about what's going on. The movie throws a lot of characters on the screen and everybody is a suspect. Yet I couldn't care about any of them. The 88 minutes countdown is suppose to be a real time tension builder. It just serves to countdown when this movie finally ends.
k-sakthivel 88 minutes a thriller and psychological crime film.. After 20 minutes into the film you will assume everyone is a suspect behind all the murders. Its a good role for Al Pacino making him a psychiatrist of forensic technology. The movie moves in a really fast pace and find it more thrilling in the end. Its a typical Jon Avnet's film.Movie starts with Jack (Al Pacino's character) receives a call saying he has a hour and a more to live. So Jack goes in search of all clues of the murders committed. while searching he suspects everyone around him and he makes us believe that they might also be involved.Finally at the end Jack solves the case and keeps up his name. I gave a 7 only because of Al Pacino's acting and a little for the story...
robinski34 On the evidence of this, Al Pacino cannot polish a turd. It's a largely nonsensical cut-and-shut job of a movie with some very poor dialogue, and I would recommend that you avoid it. It has nothing new to say about any of its tired themes, the set pieces are half-hearted and there is no sense of threat whatsoever. The majority of Director Jon Avnet's work has been in television, but the top TV offer moved on some time ago from this sort of material. Serving up standard ingredients and expecting the audience to swallow them is the province of a host of disposable, second-rate American cop shows, and I suspect that some of them would turn their noses up at this. Writer Gary Scott Thomson's movie credits are similarly thin, all you need to know is that his best known movie credits are for the 'Fast and Furious' series – but mostly just for the characters ('nuff said).If you want to watch Al Pacino strutting his best stuff, avoid 88 Minutes and check out Christopher Nolan's excellent 'Insomnia' or some superb scenery chewing in 'Any Given Sunday'. If it's crime drama you are looking for, TV has much better to offer in the form of 'The Wire', 'Wallander' or 'The Killing'.
