John DeFore

The Hollywood Reporter

Despite multiple onscreen timestamps, the film doesn't generate ticking-clock tension so much as it paints a picture of dead ends and foreordained poverty.

New York Times

Sincere, sometimes brief performances - including those of John Leguizamo as a disabled veteran, and Julia Stiles as the bitter wife of Nelson's nemesis - lend necessary oomph to a narrative that can, at times, verge on sleepy.

Transcends any lingering trace of gimmickry with emotionally gripping results.

Actor Victor Almanzar makes his screenwriting debut with the gritty, visceral, and sobering 11:55.

Los Angeles Daily News

It's Almanzar's controlled portrayal of a man who's learned from past mistakes and recent trauma, though, that will really haunt you.

The movie's promotional copy spoils the ending, and once you know that, the protagonist's final actions aren't worth sitting through the film to see. The title might as well been 12:55 because after finally arriving, the antagonist does nothing. And the godfather character doesn't seem necessary as he refuses to do anything meaningful in the plot.

John Leguizamo plays the only role worth watching. Bad acting, predictable script albeit with gaping holes leaves this movie behind. Nothing interesting happening here

What a beautiful screen play and natural acting of all actors. I was amazed to know that Victor was a Marine and had to go through a lot of things. The acting of Elizabeth Rodriguez was super and the way she acted in a barber shop that was super dope. Color grade and the music was fabulous. Thanks to Ben Snyder for making such a beautiful film.

Masterful performance from the entire cast. The film embodied the essence of fighting the demons of a checkered past and trying to carve a better future. Masterful script and directing.
