Movie Description
At 11:14 PM on one fatal evening, previously unconnected lives connect for the first time, with fatal consequences for some. This is the premise behind director Greg Marcks's inventive drama, 11:14, which draws on an impressive cast that includes Hilary Swank (BOYS DON'T CRY), Patrick Swayze (DONNIE DARKO), and Rachael Leigh Cook (SHE'S ALL THAT). Marcks slowly unveils five separate tales as the characters unwittingly careen towards each other. The movie is reminiscent of Paul Haggis's CRASH, although 11:14 precedes Haggis's film by two years.
Industry Reviews
3 stars out of 5 -- "[An] enjoyably unhinged black comedy....This exercise in splintered narrative feels like AMORES PERROS by way of Tarantino..."
Total Film - Neil Smith (08/01/2006)
"[E]njoyable for its narrative economy and zesty writing....[With] a persuasively hermetic and uncomfortable atmosphere of smalltown malaise."
Sight and Sound - Hannah McGill (09/01/2006)
4 stars out of 5 -- "Hilary Swank, Colin Hanks and Patrick Swayze have cackling fun amid violent twists and cynical laughs."
Uncut - Chris Roberts (02/01/2007)
4 stars out of 5 -- "[I]t's an impressive feature debut....This is a sharp, tidy thriller with some finely played performances..."
