11:59

Pretty much sums it up. If you're into good stories, this one is good...if you can get past the really bad acting. AWFUL AWFUL ACTING. I'M NOT JOKING...buuuutttt....goooooood story. it's (really ironic actually).

So I'd watch it if I were you since I LOVE GOOD STORIES and can imagine good actors in the place of bad actors SINCE I WATCH THE MOVIE IN THE THEATER OF MY OWN MIND ANYWAYS!

joking aside. I'm going to watch this directors next movies INK and THE FRAME to see if he grew as a Director. He & his producer did a great job of production value.

but really bad acting here lol

I saw 11:59 last night in Kansas City/Overland park! I thought that for the first feature film for Jamin, and the first lead role for Raymond Bailey, I thought they did an excellent job! They kept you in suspense and made you cry at the end! I would buy a thousand copies right now!!! I know that everyone that watched it with me would agree when I say that everyone involved with the movie are very talented! Being from Colorado myself, I think they did a great job portraying the state for how beautiful it is, but also how mysterious it can be too! I'm very proud of everyone involved, ESPECIALLY RAY!!! I think Ray is the next best thing coming to Hollywood!! Watch out Brad Pitt!

Finger thing!

I saw this movie for the first time in Kansas City and was absolutely intrigued! I believe this movie was an all around excellent planned out plot and story! The values and ethics established in this film gave a great look to the value of life, which is commonly taken for granted. A job well done to all of the actors and actresses! I was really hoping the boss would get hit by a car, but I guess you can't always get what you wish for!! Raymond Andrew Bailey did an INCREDIBLE job as the lead Aaron, very heart-felt! He made tears come to my eyes! I hope to see him in many more films! Jamin Winans did an awesome job on this feature and I can't wait for future productions!

The audience for this movie is anyone in the mood for an indie film that's high on plot, and is OK with struggles in dialog and acting. There is some social commentary and questions raised as to the effect media has in influencing the populace, especially during a scandal. Standard conspiracy type stuff but clever enough to make for a good watch. I gave it a 6 because it was compelling despite the weaknesses and made me interested in the imagination of Winans. This is a young filmmaker that shows promise as long as he handles his career well. His next feature is an animation, which I believe will allow him to develop the plot a little more and I could see being a world he is more comfortable in.

I saw this film at the Idaho International Film Festival (it was actually the only feature I was able to attend), and it intrigued me.

There are a few flaws, mainly a few actors who didn't give it their all, I felt, but the lead actor helps the film by taking it seriously and overshadowing the others. I'm definitely looking forward to seeing him in future films.

My biggest qualm with "ll:59" was the over-use of choppy editing. I understand the need to show disorientation, but the scenes in the news room would often cut - not to another angle - but to what appeared to be another take from the same angle. Just very unnatural.

However, the film got all of these kinks out of its system by the end of the first act, and I felt the rest of the film carried itself along quite nicely.

I would be extremely happy if my first film (which I am currently producing) turns out as well as this film has. Great job, guys, and good luck and God bless on your future endeavors!
