15 Minutes





I liked it, but it could have been a lot better. Kelsey Grammer was a blast, though.

Ah, I remember this was one of the only four movies that I was ever rejected the entry to (the other two being Saving Private Ryan, The Crow and my second viewing of M:I-2) because it was Cert. 18 (which means only people 18 or above were allowed to see it) and I was only 15 at that time. Well, that made me even more curious since the movie was supposed to be very gruesome with this rating (considering that's usually the only reason why movies get high ratings here, the rating boards are very lenient with language/nudity), so I simply snuck in a month or two later after having bought a ticket for Miss Congeniality.

Well, anyway. The movie was decent, but nothing outstanding and certainly not a highlight of de Niro's career. It wasn't really violent, so I am a bit clueless about its rating here. I did find it shocking that de Niro was actually killed. Didn't see that coming. The both killers were really good, not any worse than de Niro. I really enjoyed the pay-off, but on the whole the movie wasn't outstanding.
