Advantages: Enjoyable film, decent enough script and cast Disadvantages: Hadn't heard of it till I went to HMV
...other day I came across Out Of Time, staring Denzel. I'd never heard of it before but based on his track record of movies decided it was a safe gamble to take. So with all this in mind I sat down to watch it this weekend to see if my purchase had paid off.
Denzel stars as Matthias Whitlock, the chief of police in Banyan Key a small town in Florida. The community is one of those places where nothing major really happens so when a fire kills two people ... ...up the evidence and find out what's going on before he himself is implicated.

This was a medicore film, I did quite like teh story and I admit some moments were intense but it didn't really grip too much. Denzel Washington is a good actor and he played the part very well. Eva Mendes was enjoyable ... ...also Denzel's humourus accomplice whose in on the whole thing. He added some much needed comic relief I believe. The guy from the New Adventures of Superman was also in it so any fans of his should take note (if he has any fans). A spin off with just Eva Mendes and that mortuary/coroner funny guy would be great. And also slight plot spoiler but Eva Mendes and Denzel's characters happen to get back together at the end of the film with no more actual ...

Advantages: Completely unexpected twists. Keeps you on edge for most of the film Disadvantages: Slow confusing start. Cheesy neat ending.
...Matt's wife Alex turns out to be the person in charge of the investigation and as the evidence starts to come out of his involvement with Anne, he finds himself in a race against time trying to stay ahead of his wife and his own police force to retrieve the money and catch the real killer. As the plot twists and turns he discovers that the truth is something he would never have imagined.
