Jon Avnet directs Al Pacino in the thriller 88 Minutes. Pacino plays university professor Jack Gramm, who occasionally assists the FBI in matters of forensic psychiatry. His recent testimony against a freshly convicted criminal seems to be the reason he has gotten a scary phone call informing him he will die in 88 minutes. As with the like-minded thriller D.O.A. (both the original and the remake), the protagonist must use his skills in order to track down who has hatched this evil plot and hopefully prevent his own demise. Alicia Witt and Leelee Sobieski co-star as the professor's star students. ~ Perry Seibert, Rovi

    Excellant movie- one of the years best. Pacino at his best.

    This movie just kept getting better and better as it went along and all the actors did a great job, not just Pacino. The tension it generated by the great acting, and directing, etc. was exceptional IMHO. I regularly thought that maybe even I wanted to kill Dr. Jack Gramm because he was often too obnoxious, but you just had to live with his quirks as an integral part of the story. Just when you figured the guy was way wrong, he proved to be way right! The movie really kept you guessing and I never saw the end coming!

    If you like Pacino you will enjoy this. Good suspense. A little too much going on to have taken place in only 88 minutes, but what the heah?

    Yes   |   No
