180 Seconds Audience Reviews

GamerTab That was an excellent one.
Actuakers One of my all time favorites.
BoardChiri Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay
Scarlet The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
manuel1avila I don't really understand how this piece of wannabe action flick made it to more than 6 on IMDb, my guess is that all the cast and crew voted to make it look bearable. However it is not. The time-line is a mess, the dialogs are pretentious and out of the place mostly, the action is goofy and the surprises and dramatic turns are so naive that even a fifth grader could have guessed them.It just takes fifteen minutes into the movie to realize that this is a poor attempt to make a Colombian version of Ocean's eleven or The Perfect Plan, but mixing a betrayal sub-plot and a romantic story that scratch into the silliness. In my opinion the origins of this movie was a very basic idea that someone thought that could work, then a poor story development that could have been successfully fit in 30 minutes, and 1 hour of incidental, romantic and flashback fillings that add nothing to the central story.I was not able to finish watching this nonsense even fast-forwarding the last 30 minutes.
hof-4 180 seconds is the maximum time in which a group of armed robbers must complete a heist before the police arrives. Director Alexander Giraldo opts for a narrative method reminiscent of Kubrick's The Killing or Tarantino's Reservoir Dogs; scenes are not in chronological order, thus we know parts of the ending at the very beginning. Some scenes are played twice; the meaning of the second viewing is different from the first since we have more information. It is only at the end that loose ends are tied up. The pace is unflagging, and the movie uses computer graphics imaginatively in various places.Acting is uniformly excellent, and dialogs are memorable. The Spanish spoken in this movie is beautiful, witty, full of colorful colloquial terms, with a singsong that is almost musical; it is worth noting that the familiar address is "vos" like in Argentina or Uruguay, not "tu" like in Spain and many Latin American countries. Since the movie was filmed in Cali, this may reflect the local way of speaking.An excellent action movie, well worth watching.
