Leslie Felperin Guardian Reasonably fluid pulp entertainment, crafted efficiently by Finnish director Timo Vuorensola... Rated: 3/5 Jul 5, 2023 Full Review José C. Donayre Guerrero EscribiendoCine The use of a ticking clock as an element of tension and decisions with international implications add additional layers to the plot of this intense UK thriller. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 6/10 Nov 11, 2023 Full Review Guillermo Courau La Nación (Argentina) [Alec Baldwin and Jonathan Rhys-Meyers] try to lift a project that's been nose-diving since its first minutes; mortally wounded, paradoxically, by those who created it. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 1/5 Nov 9, 2023 Full Review Pablo O. Scholz Clarín The film wasn't flying poorly, but the final moments lowered the filmmaking's ammeter... [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 3/5 Nov 9, 2023 Full Review Jeffrey M. Anderson Common Sense Media This misguided thriller moves in unwieldy starts and stops, with elements that seemed important 10 minutes earlier being forgotten and no cohesive sense of character or suspense. Rated: 2/5 Jun 17, 2023 Full Review Todd Jorgenson Cinemalogue Mercifully, this low-budget thriller is a bit shorter than its title suggests, as it fails to yield any meaningful suspense either in the air or on the ground.

giorgos e Δεν εχω δει χειροτερη ταινια στην ζωη μου. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 09/13/24 Full Review Freedom G Weak scenario, hijacks handling events on the plane are extremely unconvincing.. and the hidden agent acts and moves on the plane are unreasonable, trivial and irrelevant.. is it possible to make collateral conversation with the doctor in such situation?!! Banal movie in all aspects, couldn't continue watching. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 06/29/24 Full Review Kevin B Low budget, predictable "thriller" that fails in every attempt to engage the viewer. Misguided, disconnected plot. Alec Baldwin typecast as the government leadership buffoon. Don't believe the bot 5 star reviews. Save the time. Skip this one. Wish I had Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/12/24 Full Review David D Watched on Disney and loved it Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/30/23 Full Review Dina D Great script, great lighting, action, everything Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/30/23 Full Review BallisticzsGaming R 97 Minutes is a low budget action thriller that stars Alec Baldwin and Jonathan Rhys Meyers as terrorists hijack a 767 plane and they only have 97 minutes until the plane runs out of fuel. The movie actually starts off pretty decently as I am engaged in the action but the whole time the movie is just missing that thrill factor to keep me invested. The movie totally lacks that feeling of fear that you get for the characters and imagining how you'd feel being on the plane. The performances in this movie I thought were good but mediocre with the standout being Jonathan Rhys Meyers as his character has this turning point in the movie which I'm conflicted by which brings me into the next big thing about this movie is that the movie feels completely misguided in the direction it is going, almost like the movie was continually being written as the movie was shooting without any sense of how the movie was going to play out. They introduce certain elements or key plot points only to back track and disregard what was put in place 10 minutes ago within the movie and just that alone made the movie plummet for me. The movie is also only 93 minutes long and with a plot like this, you would think the movie would feel like a rollercoaster ride, but it felt like a rollercoaster that kept breaking down during the ride. Overall, 97 minutes delivers a decent acting performance and mediocre action with a directionless story. 97 Minutes gets a C-. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 12/13/23 Full Review Read all reviews
