15 Minutes2

Worse than the impressive cast being thrown away, or the wasted expense of shooting on location in New York, or the plot that blows apart under the pressure of increasing implausibility, what's really annoying about 15 Minutes is how untimely it is. On every level, from the mismatched central pairing (Robert De Niro is a cop, Ed Burns an arson investigator) to the serial-killing duo to the sledgehammered-home message that THE MEDIA IS BAD, 15 Minutes is months, years, even decades behind the times. Should you really feel the need to see it, just don't be surprised if you think you've seen it before. You have, just not all in the same movie.
