Description:
Two-time Academy Award® winner* Denzel Washington (Training Day) is 'fantastic [in this] inventive, exciting and spellbinding thriller' ('The Movie Network') co-starring Eva Mendes (2 Fast 2 Furious), Sanaa Lathan (Blade) and Dean Cain ('Lois & Clark'). In Banyan Key, a small Florida town surrounded by azure seas and sultry secrets, Chief of Police Matt Whitlock (Washington) finds himself caught in the eye of a storm and about to get blown away. Investigating the murder of a woman he was secretly seeing, Matt races to uncover a murky trail of stolen money, drugs and deceit, all the while staying two steps ahead of his own detectives because all the evidence points to him! *2001: Actor, Training Day; 1989: Supporting Actor, Glory

Partly inspired by 1948's The Big Clock and its nominal 1987 remake No Way Out, the Denzel Washington thriller Out of Time is quite enjoyable if you ignore its implausible plotting. Like those earlier films, this reunion of Washington and his Devil in a Blue Dress director Carl Franklin is about a man--in this case the police chief (Washington) of sleepy Banyan Key, Florida--who falls into a trap set by others, sinks into legal quicksand of his own making, and must race the clock to extricate himself from a series of incriminating setbacks. The Florida setting adds welcome character to the potboiler plot, and Washington's screen-cred makes it easy to overlook the absurdities of rookie writer David Collard's screenplay. Eva Mendes is sharp and sensible as Washington's estranged wife (do you think they'll reconcile for a happy ending?), and the talented John Billingsley--whose portrayal of 'Dr. Phlox' on TV's Enterprise is vastly underrated--is a constant delight as Washington's medical examiner, beer buddy and wily co-conspirator. It's hardly a classic, but Out of Time goes well with a big tub of popcorn. --Jeff Shannon

Rating:  - a decent action packed thriller
A very good Denzel Washington film, a little obscure but it is a mystery action thriller which had me wondering about the characters until the end. Dramatic, well acted and a good. Lots of backstabbing, lying and someone being set up. Or are they?
Rating: - Out of time
I really like the movie. The packaging is a different story. When I got the movie "Out of Time", the cover was damaged and the cd was not fixed secure in the package and was sliding around inside of the case.
I was not sure I could return it and get another due to the fact that I had opened it.
Rating:  - Effective simple thriller
A simple thriller in which a woman is used as a piece of bait to get some drug money from a gullible cop who believes he is in love with her. The final twist is not what we could have hoped, but it sure is convincing about the dumbness of cops or even men when they get infatuated with love. But the interest of the film is essentially in the hectic chase-escape of one cop after-from another cop who happens to be his-her wife-husband. One thing is sure: as soon as a woman appears within his eye-range ... Read More
Rating: - An Entertaining Thriller
