Out of Time Reviews
Out of Time comes on like a cool glass of lemonade on a hot summer day, featuring Denzel at the peak of his powers and an impeccably laidback aesthetic somewhere between the palpable sweat of Body Heat and the orange-hued romanticism of Tony Scott.

It works best as a sugar-rush thriller, light and undeniably absurd. But to be honest, that’s a big part of what makes it so much fun.

The task of keeping this from getting too smart for its own good falls squarely on the dependable shoulders of Washington.

It's the performance by the largely unknown (well, outside of Star Trek: Enterprise fans) John Billingsley that remains the freshest ingredient in this otherwise negligible piece of pulp fiction.

Best for older teens and their parents.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Dec 26, 2010
This generically titled mystery thriller is slow to catch on but holds joyous moments of suspense once it kicks in.
| Original Score: C | Jun 14, 2009
In spite of decent performances from the main cast, Carl Franklin's thriller is listless and very weak.

Second-rate Hitchcock.

Franklin seems to be aware that the audience knows what is going to happen.

The suspense is killing, but the sense of being in the hands of a skilled storyteller is relaxing, too. Out of Time is a blast without making you work for it.

I have a policy about life insurance policies in movies like this: Don't be the beneficiary. Just don't do it. Nothing good ever comes of it.

O roteiro acaba negligenciando um aspecto que deveria ser importante para o heri: a inteligncia.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 27, 2004
Only good enough to remind of the kind of filmmaker that Franklin has been and, hope springing eternal, could be again.
