88 Minutes (2007)
6/10
Copycat vs Nick Of Time
14 May 2008
Warning: Spoilers
Sometimes it's just as easy to give a synopsis by telling you what movies it is like. If you've seen "Copycat" (serial killer thriller), and "Nick Of Time" (real time murder thriller), then mash these two movies together, and it makes "88 Minutes".

Considering this movie was filmed about 2 years ago, you know going in there are obvious problems that caused it's delay. I watched this movie waiting for cheesy lines, weak plot points, and inconsistencies, and I have to say it wasn't all that disappointing. It's definitely not Pacino's greatest work, and very well could be close to the bottom.

In this Pacino flick he plays the never wrong, knows all, I'm smarter than you lead which at times takes away from the movie. When the end rolls around and finally plays out, you see him just turn around and walk away as if he knew he was going to save the day, and that it's just another slice of "Dr Jack Graham's" life.

In my opinion Pacino was trying to make this movie the "Godfather" of serial killer movies, and for that it failed. It's still a fun movie to watch and try and determine "who" is going to kill Pacino.
