2 Hours I Will Never Get Back

Rating: 6/10 (3 June 2002)

Who ever is calling this a smart adult movie is wrong. This movie has nothing on the likes of Memento. I had originally heard that due to insomnia, Pacino wasn't even sure if he had killed his partner, and that sounded intriguing. The fact that in the end he wasnt sure of his motivation was very unconvincing. There are no smart twists in this movie. In my opinion the acting wasn't that great either, just because Pacino looked like he hasnt slept in a week doesn't make for a great performance, because thats pretty much the way he looks all the time, same with that crappy In The Bedroom movie, just because Sissy Spacek looked burned out and crazy doesnt mean she gave a great performance, shes looks like that naturally. There were a few decent parts to the movie, like when Pacino was trying to stay awake driving and almost left the road, but that doesnt make up for the rest fo the crap. The detective work was alright too, better then an Ace Ventura movie anyways but overall the movie wasn't good at all. When I check my watch several times during a movie and finally leave, never wanting to watch that movie again I know it isnt a good movie. I should have watched Undervocer Brother.
