Fração de Segundos

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.

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 had to come to see who played Claire. Meadow Williams? I can't believe she was actually an actress, I thought they picked someone off the streets and had her read lines during the film. Wow... Even the star cast seems like they were just reading lines and not acting.

Bruce Willis must currently be the laziest actor in Hollywood. For the past few years, he has appeared in a string of movies produced by schlockmeisters Randall Emmett and George Furla, and in every one he just appears for a few minutes while getting a hefty paycheck for doing almost nothing. What's worse is that in those few minutes of screen time, Willis clearly shows that he doesn't give a darn about his surroundings and instead gives a sleepwalking performance. All this happens again in "10 Minutes Gone". Actually, even if Willis gave some effort, this would still be one very bad movie. The only positive thing I can say about this movie is that the photography is fairly professional. Other than that, the list of bad things in the movie is endless. We have most of the movie seemingly filmed very quickly in derelict buildings and back alleys, hardly any set dressings, action sequences that are extremely routine and boring, a boring and unsuspensful main story thread, a performance by lead actor Michael Chiklis that suggests extreme displeasure and pain of being in this project, and a "surprise twist" near the end that you will guess long before it actually happens. Please, Bruce Willis, realize that you'd be better off retiring instead of further damaging your reputation by doing more quickie efforts like this!
