An interesting, not to say timely, twist on Andy Warhol's fifteen minutes of fame theory. Unfortunately, the execution of the thrills doesn't live up to the film's conceit.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Apr 16, 2019

It's pretty clear it's the audience who the filmmakers think are the sheeps here.

Alley flasher, pubescent paperboy, toy with a broken squeaker. Edward Burns sounds like those things, but plays none of them here. He's fire marshal Jordy Warsaw. That sounds like a Pauly Shore character; Shore would arguably act with greater conviction.

| Original Score: 0/4 | Sep 25, 2010

Exceptionally violent, intense DeNiro thriller.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 26, 2010

"15 Minutes" is a cops-and-killers action movie naively intent on telling you things you already know about the societal pitfalls of tabloid media.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Dec 27, 2007

It sounds like some crank on the next barstool venting about how everything is crap.

| Original Score: F | Jul 23, 2007

And so now, in the unambitious tradition of the eminent Natural Born Killers - comes the spectacularly underachieving 15 Minutes.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Sep 27, 2006

Andy Warhol's theory gets yet another Hollywood workup in this slezy actioner, this time around with two foreign criminals as media-hungry badasses.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Dec 6, 2005

It's as if Herzfeld believes all that stuff about Americans being hopelessly infantile -- he wanted to make a really good movie, but he just knew he'd lose us if he did.

Full Review | Original Score: B- | Jan 7, 2005

Herzfeld has created an alternate New York City that is just unpleasant to look at, plain and simple.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Dec 8, 2002

Relentless yelling by two usually fine actors spoils this timely crime drama.

| Aug 2, 2002

A mean, ugly exploitation picture with sophomoric delusions of grandeur.

Full Review | Jun 21, 2002

If yesterday's headlines are today's trash, think of writer-director John Herzfeld as the friendly neighborhood garbageman who brings the dumpster straight to your door.
