11 Minutes Ago

I'm a little surprised to see low scores on this clever little picture. It was all shot in one day on a very small budget and I think it works pretty well for what it is. It has a nice little romance that plays out in one evening for the female character but the male character has to endure being in love with this woman for months, as he is only able to go back into time to see her for eleven minutes at a time and then wait a while and then come back. And sometimes he comes back before the last time he came back so the work he's done with the girl has to be redone...it's maddening enough to try to seduce a woman chronologically, imagine jumping in and out of the space-time continuum and trying to keep your "game" on straight. Anyway the way it plays out is real fun. Don't let the fact that there are no name actors in this one...it stands pretty well on its own without Michael Caine (new ordinances require Michael Caine to appear in every major Hollywood release in case you were not aware of this). Anyway, check it out...pretty fun.

This is a movie for people who are tired of typical gimmick filled Hollywood drivel filled with overblown egos. Well written and excellently acted. Don't drink too much soda during this film because you don't want to miss any of the subtle details that make this film really work. It is a romantic movie, without the clichés of a chick-flick. This is a sure hit for the romantically challenged. It is hard to imagine that this was filmed all in one day. I would compare it to the year 2000 hit Memento starring Guy Pierce without the violence. 11 Minutes Ago really shows that big ideas often trump big budgets. Don't miss the opportunity to see it.

A bunch of us from our production group went to see this at a recent festival, and I must say this is one of the best Indie movies I've seen in a long time.

The concept is brilliant! I can see everyone saying "I wish I had thought of that." Bob did a wonderful job writing and directing a script that works on many different levels. This will appeal to everyone from the male SciFi demographic to the female love story group.

The actors/actresses play very well off of each other through out. This piece moves quickly and keeps everyone guessing. You have to pay attention and even the credit roll is important.

This deserves to win awards, and it has been. Looking at some of the poor ratings received here and that was back in 2007, which is before the final cut. I think if those people saw it now they'd change their vote.

If you get a chance, I highly recommend you see this one.

I just saw this last night at Worldfest Houston (www.worldfest.org). It was an interesting premise and put together like no other movie I have ever seen. It is definitely a quality independent film and proves once again that you don't need a studio or a huge budget to make a good flick. The writer/director and many of the actors were at the showing and did an extended Q&A after the feature. He said they rehearsed extensively and shot the film in 17 hours. They shot eight 11-minute long scenes with 4 cameras and the actors used lines or actions as cues throughout. The actors likened the production to their previous stage experience. Check it out if you get the opportunity!

Years after watching this gem of entertainment i find myself recommending this movie to colleagues. I'm surrounded by innovative technologist that gather for team building discussions. When i reveal that i prefer sci fi, specifically, time travel, i recommend this movie. The final seconds are brilliant.

I love the way i feel when my intelligence is entertained.

The simplicity of conjectures to conclusions moved my focus from laissez-faire to transfixed. I was entertained by the story's ability to induce "Just enough" anxiety and scientific-chaos to keep me quizzical.

You might find it interesting that I only watched the film once in the 2008 timeframe, and haven't seen it a second time. That's over 15 years of me, sharing this movie title. Memorable film.
