4/5 A Hit For Washington
  by drkhimxz (Freehold, NJ, USA)
I have no idea how well the film did at the box-office, but at home, watched via DVD and TV monitor, it was certainly a hit in my living room. Washington is at the center at all times even when he is not actually on screen. Its all for the best since his good-humored lusty young police chief unifies the plot and action providing the golden thread which holds the whole thing together. There is an adequate degree of suspense, a good deal of anything but straitlaced straight arrow behavior, and a good assortment of featured players for him to negotiate with, but in the end it is Washington's show. It is due to him that what might have been a hokey third rate cop in the hole show or a cheap lusty cop in bed and out sexpot ill-tasting stew, is turned into an almost James Garner can of humor-suspense-at heart good natured action film...with the barest minimum of shoot-'em-up bloodletting. I liked this one and I am pretty sure most of you would like it too.

We had never heard of this movie before but since Denzel was in it we took a chance. It was very good. He is an actor you can always depend on no matter what the story is.

4/5 An Entertaining Flick
  by S. Peek (Rocky Mountains, USA)
This is a thriller that is pretty good. It is certainly no classic, but it is quite enjoyable.

Denzel Washington appears as Matthias (Matt) Whitlock, the corrupt chief of a small town (Banyan Key, Florida) police department. His wife Alex (Eva Mendes) is divorcing him. He is having an affair with a married woman, Ann Harrison (Sanaa Lathan) whose husband is very abusive to her.

Ann and her husband are apparently murdered in an arson fire. Matt and his department are not the lead investigators, but he is assisting. Although he is ethically challenged, Matt is apparently not the killer, but more and more of the evidence points to him as the suspect. He is under a lot of time pressure to keep ahead of the investigation and try to find the real killer while avoiding arrest himself.

Although several of the plot elements are implausible, all in all, this is an entertaining thriller.


5/5 Washington Extends His Charismatic Brand
  by Edward S. Brown (Atlanta, GA)
Actor Mel Jackson reportedly said that Denzel Washington's movies are a composite of the same character. From a cursory view, it might have seemed that Jackson was slighting Washington's acting ability. But, he wasn't! In "Out of Time" the Denzel Washington brand is in full effect. Washington's coolness, calculating and charisma jump off the screen. "Out of Time" is full of riveting, twists, intrigue and farfetched encounters. Most importantly, it's a fun movie that you never get tired of watching again and again. Why?

"Out of time' has a spiraling out of control plot with beautiful cunning women and a handsome, but flawed, engaging leading man. It's the complexity of human nature gone awry. It's what happens when you mix love, friendship and greed in the same pot and wait for it to react. It's explosive.

Watch "Out of Time" and see Denzel Washinton, Sanaa Lathan and Eva Mendes explode!
