Synopsis

Randall "Memphis" Raines (Nicolas Cage) long ago abandoned his life of crime, but after an ominous visit from an old friend, he finds he has no choice but to return to what he does best - stealing cars - in order to save his brother's life. It all comes down to one night, 50 cars and a contract.
A true automobile aficionado, Memphis has a burning passion for cars. Fuel injected, high performance, V-8, V-12, turbo charged, loaded or stripped to the bare essentials, he knows and loves every nut and bolt, every gleaming piece of chrome. Memphis is a car thief of legendary proportion. No fancy lock or alarm can stop him; your car will be there and gone in 60 seconds.
For years, Memphis eluded the law while boosting every make and model imaginable, with the exception of one elusive car, his beloved Eleanor, a 1967 Shelby Mustang GT 500. When the heat became too intense, he left everything and everyone he loved to find a different life. But when his kid brother (Giovanni Ribisi) tries to follow in his footsteps only to become dangerously embroiled in a high stakes caper, Memphis is sucked back into his old life, tearing up the streets for one last death defying heist.

Critics' reviews

"The story is unbelievable and phenomenally silly, not a good combination (...) Car aficionados might also get pleasure in seeing a series of classic automobiles"

Mick LaSalle: SFGATE
"A 119-minute trailer."

Marc Savlov: Austin Chronicle
"Proves a theory first advanced in the movie 'Repo Man': The more you drive, the stupider you get"

Carrie Rickey: Philadelphia Inquirer
"I found it more pleasurable as a time waster than either 'Mission: Impossible'."

Jonathan Rosenbaum: Chicago Reader
"There were moments when I thought Gone in 60 Seconds might be a passably entertaining movie. I figure those moments, strung end-to-end, would total 30 or 40 seconds"

Desson Thomson: The Washington Post
"Perfectly dreadful in every respect"

Variety
"A blur of metal and fire and screeching tires, with bad dialogue, cardboard characters and a volume set so high, it makes the Indianapolis 500 sound like chamber music."

Jack Mathews: New York Daily News
