You gotta figure somethings wrong when the best part of a Denzel Washington movie is John Billingsley.
The Globe And Mail

Just not smart enough to allow one to swallow all the coincidences and contrivances on the way to its disappointingly predictable conclusion.

Out of Time is a generic thriller with nary a surprise in store for the experienced film noir viewer.
ReelViews

If youre willing to forgive some unlikely scenarios, Out of Time is cracking good fun.

The bottom line is that Crossplot doesnt have much to offer aside from the novelty of Moore playing a dashing ladies man that isnt named James Bond.

Washingtons last big film, Training Day, managed to combine popcorn entertainment with thought provoking issues.

A subtle role for Denzel Washington as a kind of tragic hero, a good man almost brought down by a flaw in his character.
Internet Reviews
3.1
An overly constructed little thriller that squeezes a fair amount of suspense out of its far fetched plot.

It has about as much logic as Iraq apparently has weapons of mass destruction.

As its tension subsides, you may find yourself thinking back to pivotal events that dont hold up to closer scrutiny.

All Together Although Out of Time redeemed itself halfway through, its probably not worth a trip to the theater.
