United States | Ebert & Roeper | "I just wish they would have tried a little harder with the script." | NEU |
United States | New York Daily News | "A solid thriller full of surprises." | POS |
United States | Houston Chronicle | "Despite its exciting moments the film is marred by contrivance and implausibilities." | NEU |
United States | Newsday | "Gripping crime thriller that reunites Devil in a Blue Dress star Denzel Washington with director Carl Franklin and, in many ways, reinvents the genre." | POS |
United States | Boston Globe | "An overly constructed little thriller that squeezes a fair amount of suspense out of its far-fetched plot." | NEU |
United States | Los Angeles Times | "Despite the standard-issue ingredients -- the palm trees, the femme fatale, the dirty money -- there's something about the movie that sets it apart from the usual thriller." | POS |
United States | The New York Times | "Although it is briskly directed and enjoyably stylized, the film is shallow." | NEU |
United States | The Hollywood Reporter | "Cross 'Body Heat' with 'No Way Out' and you wind up with Out of Time, a slick crime melodrama with more style than substance" | POS |
