11:14 (2003)

So much average

Wow! What a bizarre film! Unfortunately the few funny moments there were were quite overshadowed by it's completely weird and random vibe throughout.

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

Tarantino put it best: Write a good script, and you can afford to damn the torpedoes. 11:14 does exactly that.There's too much to say about it. Production is warm, cozy, perfectly fine. All actors took direction very, very well.But it all rests on the script; a treasure chest of delights, from organization and character, to superbly modulated language register, to a surprising denouement, which (mild spoiler; which you may welcome, as it could aid yr delectation) extremely cleverly sets forth an almost clinically even-steven character mix and then catapults one character into the fore by story's end.Left all warm and fuzzy when I regard the notable star power that (a la Pulp Fiction) likely forewent their usual rates to help breathe life into such a worthy script.Definitely check it out. American film needs more like this.

The events leading up to an 11:14 PM car crash, from five very different perspectives. 11:14 is a hilarious bad movie i'm 100% serious this film has the funniest sex scene i have ever seen, a couple is having sex in a cemetery and that dude started shaking a statue and the head cut off and crashed him or even that scene when Ben Foster's d*ck stuck into the door of the van and cut off and one of his friends went back to get it, the acting isn't bad and actors such as Patrick Swayze, Hilary Swank, Henry Thomas, Clark Gregg and Ben Foster are talented people it's just that the film is hilarious bad and the characters are just boring and dumb. I give 11: 14 a 2 out of 10 it definitely doesn't deserve a 7.2 sorry but no sorry!!

11:14 is an independent thriller that follows the intricate connections of five different story lines that collide in a series of deadly and ironic twists. Ensemble cast includes Rachael Leigh Cook, Henry Thomas, Shawn Hatosy, Stark Sands, Colin Hanks, Ben Foster, Barbara Hershey, Clark Gregg, Patrick Swayze and Hilary Swank.It was directed by Greg Marcks.The film involves a series of interconnected events that converge up to the same time at 11:14 p.m. The connections between the events are not apparent at first, but are gradually revealed by a series of progressively receding flashbacks:1) Jack, who has been drinking, is seen driving along a road at night talking on his cell phone. The clock on the dashboard reads 11:14 p.m. Suddenly, as he drives under an overpass, something smashes across the windshield, causing him to skid off the road. He stops by a deer crossing sign and gets out to inspect the damage, and finds a human body with a badly mutilated face lying close to his car. When he sees another car approaching, he panics and drags the body out of sight;2)Teenagers Tim, Mark and Eddie are driving around causing trouble by throwing things out of the windows of Mark's van, including a book they have set on fire;3)Frank is walking his dog late at night and discovers his daughter's car keys next to the dead body of Aaron in the cemetery. Thinking his daughter is responsible for the death, Frank packs the body in the trunk of Aaron's car, accidentally locking the keys in with the body;4)Buzzy is working at a convenience store late at night. Her friend and co-worker Duffy arrives and they begin discussing Cheri's pregnancy and money needed for an abortion; and 5)Cheri leaves her house to have sex with Aaron at the cemetery. Aaron is reclining against a tombstone that has a stone angel on top. The angel's neck is damaged and the heavy stone head falls onto Aaron's face, killing him instantly and mutilating his face.The camera pans to Cheri's cell phone, which reads 11:14 p.m.This is an enjoyable and smartly directed comedy thriller with a clever script and engaging performances from its ensemble cast especially Hillary Swank and Patrick Swayze. The solid screenplay satisfyingly clicks everything together, unraveling little mysteries as it goes and leaving nothing hanging. The audience is made privy to connections between the characters that they themselves are unaware of and they will see how various lies and deceptions lead to murder.Ultimately,this is an enjoyable and entertaining film.

"11:14" is a weird little movie but a good one. It's about a seemingly unconnected group of people whose lives all converge on one another's at approximately 11:14 p.m.I actually liked the movie a lot, but whoever chose the music for the movie did a pretty crappy job, in my opinion, because it makes scenes that would've otherwise felt very suspenseful come across as a little comical, which I think is totally the wrong tone for a movie of this type.The cast is quite good and everybody turns in good performances. There are actually quite a few big names in this movie, which surprisingly didn't lend itself to being a more well known movie than it is, which, suffice it to say, not many people have probably even heard of it.I would recommend checking it out. It's probably not for everybody, but I thought it was really good. I would recommend watching it at nighttime because I think the ambiance helps the enjoyment of the movie. It would seem like sort of an odd movie to watch in the middle of the day, I think.
