96 Minutes is a mere introduction to Sociology 101, but it's brisk enough to rustle the reading list and keep the conversation alive. Read full review

Despite the over-familiarity of its once-trendy time-tripping plot structure, 96 Minutes maintains a brisk pace and generates a satisfying degree of suspense with its credibly contrived tale of disparate lives forever changed by a violent carjacking. Read full review

The narrative machinery grows creakier as the plot advances, and the film is a bit too strident about some of the issues at play, but 96 Minutes is admirably knotty nonetheless. Read full review

Jonathan Pacheco

Apr 23, 2012

Director Aimee Lagos seems to be at odds with her own film, like a well-meaning but controlling parent hell-bent on choosing a child's college, major, and fraternity for them. Read full review

Mark Olsen

Apr 26, 2012

The film feels overstuffed and overcooked, as if the filmmaker were trying to get too much out all in one go. Read full review

Lagos draws strong performances from her young cast, as well as David Oyelowo, who plays Ross' uncle and guardian, but they don't have much to work with. Read full review

This film should've went to theaters internationally. There was some parts of the movie that needed work. This movie is very emotional towards the ending. If your looking for an action thriller, this movie isn't that at all. This movie is a good work of the indie/independent drama. The movie isn't low budget because it faced a $2 million budget. This movie is something you call entertainment but you call it as well a compelling scenario on one of the real life situations people around the world. This movie has a meaning. Therefore Story is a 10/10, Editing is a 7/10, Acting is 9/10, Sound Mixing is a 6/10, Sound mic from the boom is a 7/10, and finally camera movement and shot composition is 8/10… Expand
