Premise: Dr. Jack Gramm is a college professor who moonlights as a forensic psychiatrist for the FBI. When Gramm receives a death threat claiming he has only 88 minutes to live, he must use all his skills and training to narrow down the possible suspects, who include a disgruntled student, a jilted former lover, and a serial killer who is already on death row, before his time runs out.

How long do you think the movie is? 98 minutes including credits?

I don't know who else saw this...I just can say this was epically bad in every single level. It might be one of the worst films i've ever seen. It was actually insulting.

That film with de niro they did with jon avnet...it's just fearsome how bad it could be. If some miracle happens maybe it won't...but 88 Minutes...man...

Ehhh. It was okay, but there are serious plotholes and leaps-of-faith that you shouldn't think too long about. Doesn't exactly keep you guessing; it does a lot to tell you who the killer isn't by being very blatent about red-herrings. Not the best of thrillers, but Pacino does his best to keep things interesting. I just couldn't get over how gorgeous Alica Witt looked; probably because she looked so haggard on her stint on Law & Order.

This opens here in the UK after Righteous Kill, which was weird to me.  Things like that have been blowing my mind more than any of the larger differences.

Agree with you. Not an abomination but nothing really to write home about. I really wanted to enjoy this more than I did, but it didn't push me over the edge. Didn't give me a full blowjob.
