10 Minutes Gone

The second Brian Miller film where Bruce Willis just seems to turn up & shoot all his scenes within an hour, hardly moving from a single room. Wouldn't mind if the other actors pulled their weight but apart from Chiklis everyone else is out of their depth. Don't bother, very formulaic & predictable.

One of the worst movies I've seen in a long time, and I'm a big Chiklis fan! As bad as the story is, Chiklis is worse and Willis is even worse. Not a redeeming second in this entire film, far more than "10 Minutes Gone" and wasted, more like 120 minutes. At least we got a bargain matinee price. Chiklis c'mon, what the hell were you thinking?

I LOVE Bruce Willis and was so looking forward to watching this movie. Unfortunately, this is one movie not like his others. It is poorly written, poorly directed and even the filming is bad! But that's not all, the acting is just so bad I had to stop watching. If you are a huge Bruce Willis fan as I am, DO NOT watch this movie.

I like Bruce Willis and lately it seems he forgot how to act, or say no to bad rolls. I know I won't get fooled into watching a movie just because he's in it. I had to stop watching just before the ending, which could have come after 10 minutes had gone by. A waste of good talent.

This is one of those Bruce Willis films where he charges $1 million a day. So the director gets him for a day or two to shoot enough scenes to craftily insert throughout the movie.

10 Minutes Gone is a heist film with a twist. You know this as it tells you during the opening titles. Something about the three card monte and later someone mentions the phrase; 'honour among thieves.'

Rex (Bruce Willis) is a sharp suited crime boss who hires a crew for a bank job for his client who wants something valuable retrieved from the vaults.

Frank (Michael Chiklis) a safecracker and his brother Joe are part of the crew. Inevitably something goes wrong, Frank's brother is killed as they try to get away and Frank is knocked out for ten minutes.

Frank not knowing what happened when he was knocked out searches for the person who double crossed him and killed his brother. Rex meanwhile brings in an assassin to track down Frank and clean the mess up. Make sure no loose ends are left behind.

10 Minutes Gone is a below average and forgettable thriller. Frank huffs and puffs his way through the members of the gang who made it out alive. He is helped out by some woman who works in a bar whose face has been botoxed to hell. You get flashbacks of what happened during the heist as all the potential suspects act shiftily.

Chiklis is the star of the movie. He brings some credibility as someone who might be out of his depth. The twist is predictable though and absurd.
