3.0 out of 5 stars Good Cast - But an Average Heist Flick, August 27, 2010

This review is from: 2:22 (DVD)

If you're a fan of heist movies like Heat and Ocean's 11, then 2:22 probably won't impress you. While the film has its rare moments, as well as a solid cast, it simply lacks any real spark.

For this being Phillip Guzman's second film as a director, I have to give him credit for doing a decent job. There are some great cinematography moments, and a few clever shots that keep things interesting. Unfortunately, the writing by Guzman and lead actor Mick Rossi is average at best. Pointless subplots, weak attempts at suspense, and ridiculous coincidences are what kept this movie from being shown in theaters.

The marketing for this movie is also questionable. Val "Straight to DVD" Kilmer is prominently featured on the cover, next to a praising review snippet. Which is confusing given that Kilmer, playing a paranoid jeweler, gets exactly four minutes of screen time in this entire movie. Gabriel Byrne (Usual Suspects) has a "blink and you missed him" role. No one on the cast stands out, save for Robert Miano, best remembered as Sonny Red from Donnie Brasco. The most seasoned actor in the film, Miano has more than a few great scene-stealing moments. I was also surprised by newbie actress Sandy Duarte, one of the most gorgeous women that I've ever seen in film.

Bottom line, this is a fairly average heist flick. The heist team comes off looking like amateurs, and the film lacked any "edge of your seat" suspense. Give this one a rent before you decide to buy the DVD.

5.0 out of 5 stars A true classic, September 5, 2010

This review is from: 2:22 [Blu-ray] (Blu-ray)

This film isn't action packed, it doesn't have a huge cast of A list actors, what it does have is a lot of heart. This is a film where you get to know the characters in their journey. They aren't good guys but you still care about them and the others entangled in their craft. If you want a film that makes you think while enjoying the crazy story and characters in it then this is the film for you. What little action it does have is awesome, this film feels so real. The rave scene was great too! The ending has one of the most realistic death scenes ever too, just watch for yourself, great film!

2.0 out of 5 stars Too Much Violence -- Not enough Val Kilmer, November 6, 2010

This review is from: 2:22 (DVD)

I finally got a chance to watch the DVD "2:22" and was very disappointed, first in the extreme violence I was so disgusted when the jerk hit the dog. I hate violence and even more when it is violence against a animal. Then I was shocked that Val Kilmer was on the screen for only a small part of the DVD. I am a Big Fan of Val Kilmer and bought this DVD without knowing to much about it because it seemed Val was starring in it. They should have listed Val as a cameo. I will not recommend this movie to anyone.
