| A story about a situation with no way out (by rez-7-99739) |
| This is an incredible movie, it has similar themes to crash and boyz n the hood but totally stands apart as a masterful film in its own right. The characters find themselves in a very difficult situation with no easy choices, and potentially devastating consequences to bad decisions that don't have much time to be made. The conflict in the mind of each character is very well explored by a great script and careful editing that moves between back story and real time. It's very moving but also thrilling, keeping the tension tight throughout with powerful performances from a strong cast <more> |
| Really Surprised Me (by andacrossthepond) |
| I thought this movie was going to be a thriller, but I couldn't believe what a great drama it was! The story is really compelling and really draws you in. You think you know where the story is going because of all the flashbacks, but there were several twists and turns that I did not see coming, and by the end I was biting my nails trying to figure out how it would all play out.The acting in this movie was simply superb, really heart wrenching. I haven't seen a lot of Brittany Snow's other work I saw Hairspray, and obviously this character was way different than her character in <more> |
| Compelling. Heartbreaking. (by educatedsped420) |
| Like another film CRASH, 96 MINUTES tackles the subject of race, gangs, and inner- city lifestyles. It is heartbreaking in it's execution of the story. Two young females, whom are approaching college graduation are out with friends when the are approached by a man with a gun demanding their car keys. After one women is shot and is nearing death, they are put into the car, and brought along with men. Sounds pretty simple, but the use of non- linear story telling used to tell the back story on the two females, and their two captors is very compelling. By the end you realize that the women <more> |
| An edge of your seat film that has a new perspective on what it is to come of age today. (by liveunabashedly) |
| I saw this at sxsw and can't stop thinking about it. I work at an inner city school part time and the way this film portrayed the life our kids are living, the oppressive messages they receive and choices they face everyday was so eerily true to life that I just can't shake it. It's a thriller, don't get me wrong, it has your guts in knots the entire time, but there is so much more to it. It has such compassion for all the characters even as it portrays them doing terrible things. The acting is outstanding, especially Evan Ross who plays Dre and although we don't get to <more> |
| Intense, true story, good performances (by lynn115642) |
| This film kept me on the edge of my seat! It cuts back and forth between four young people who are all struggling with adulthood responsibilities while being from different ethnic, social, and economic backgrounds. The contrast is really what made it interesting, and how they all came together on this terrible night.The performance by Evan Ross won him an a much deserved award at SXSW, and Jonathan Michael Trautmann also did a wonderful job. His presence on screen was frightening, and I was actually unsure of what his character was capable of. Brittany Snow is also worth mentioning, as I felt <more> |
| Buckle up. It's about to get heavy. (by minneapolisraised) |
| This film is absolutely remarkable. The acting is elite, the soundtrack keeps you engaged even through those moments where you want to turn away. and the direction and script is beyond stellar. Brittany Snow gives a powerful performance and your heart screams for her character the entire time. Evan Ross balances a soulful excitement with a mixed toughness and his eyes never cease to keep you engaged. He definitely earned his Breakthrough Performance Award @ SXSW. Christian Serratos breaks out and shows you exactly how a serious bad day escalates into ultimate terror. J.Michael Trautmann is a <more> |
| really liked this movie (by jberger345) |
| I was fortunate enough to catch this at SxSW a few weeks ago and it's continued to stick with me. I can see the obvious comparison to CRASH although it's a bit unfounded as this movie really didn't seem to be about race at all to me. It just felt like it was about four kids struggling to make their way. Four kids who were all searching for something. Sure their circumstances were different and so they were searching for different things, but what unified them was that they were all just looking to be accepted by their families or their peers. To me, that's a universal story <more> |
| This is a TRUE story (by eddiy1) |
| I don't normally write reviews, but I'm annoyed with films on IMDb rating as 50/50, that turn out to be worth watching. Other reviewers have complained about the flash back narrative being confusing, it's not - so make your own judgement about the reviewers in question. Also reviewers believe 'the story line is unrealistic' and if modern society was like this we're in trouble; well this is supposed to based around real events and we are in trouble, anyone who doesn't know that needs to open their eyes. Yes the acting is a little wooden in places, but if the real <more> |
| THEY'RE NOT WHERE YOU'RE FROM. THEY'RE WHERE YOU'VE BEEN. (by nogodnomasters) |
| The movie opens with a night time scene of 4 youths riding in a car looking for a hospital because one of the girls is shot in the face. The shooter is also in the car and doesn't want to go to jail. We then flash back to the separate lives of the 4 individuals, in far too typical indie fashion, to see what they were doing that day and how their lives came together.Carley Brittany Snow is a pre-law student who has father issues. She is a driver and wants to graduate with honors. Lena Christian Serratos has decided to leave her uncaring boyfriend Michael Adam Trahan . Dre Evan Ross <more> |
