    I thought the movie was rentable and certainly deserves better than a 28 by the critics. Although it isn't one of the best action movies I've seen, it was entertaining.

    A total piece of junk and waste of time. Why would De Niro get himself involved with such crap? Could it be he's only in it for the money?

    If you like sensless violence and a pointless plot, then this is a great move for you.

    Terrible screenplay, great potential. Ed Burns thinks he's SO cool in this movie and so many others. DeNiro is DeNiro, good. There is fun to be had, but it is a junky movie.

    An unpleasant film but a fairly well made one. Brooding with malice and cynicism, it trudges miserly along to its topical finale. What gets it a 6 from me is I thought the acting was very good, though I couldn't highly recommend this film. There is better entertainment and better points to make elsewhere.

    Has some okay scenes between Burns and De Niro, but overall it misses the point it's trying to make.

    I enjoyed this one enough to give it 7. If you (critics that gave zeroes) are in a bad mood or...whatever are your problems, please don't write stupid things. There are other movies that you gave good marks where it is so obvious that in your saturation by the media you started to be ridiculous searching for a good movie.

    Boasts a fine cast and makes enough cogent points that it rises above standard cop fare.
  2. 25
    It takes a concerted effort to make a movie as relentlessly stupid and grating as 15 Minutes.
  3. 75
    The surprise here isn't that 15 Minutes isn't a masterpiece; it's that the movie works at all.
