Ten 'til Noon (2007)

Too many people have rated this film poorly. This is a fun movie made in the Hollywood underground style that gave us hits like "Reservoir Dogs" and "El Mariachi". The story itself is clever and one of the smartest shoot-em-up flicks I've seen since "Shooter". A lot of plot twists and an ending that leaves a bittersweet sense of closure. The film introduces a lot of new talent in the acting arena too. No big stars carry this one. No big name director (though he should be). No huge label. And yet it's destined to be a classic. The film isn't perfect. It's not the best movie ever made. It IS a great treat and something worth seeing. I am in NO WAY attached to the production. I don't know ANYONE attached to the film. I've been plugging it left and right though. GREAT FILM!!! Frederic Doss http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2427168/

Worst movie ever!! Its not clever or funny or thought provoking. 84 minutes of bad actors doing their best with an awful script.Acting was so bad that you can see the dead people breathing.Maybe the writer/director combination believed they were Quentin Tarantino or something (you know make a movie about nothing still cool) but failed miserably.I hope the writer never makes another movie EVER!! not everyone is born a writer, sometimes we need to count our losses and go back to being a bathroom attendant or whatever.Please don't watch this movie, even on mute with the stereo going its still a painful 84 mins.

Personally, I am tired of remakes and sequels! I know the studios think they are safe financial bets, but c'mon, aren't the viewers deserving of some originality? Well, Ten Til Noon, will keep you on the edge of your seat, wondering what will happen next from beginning until end! Parts of it will have you squirming in your seat and in the next minute your seat will be shaking with laughter! Excellent performances by all! An ending that will surprise the best of sleuths and a freshness that you will find in few films! Check it out on the big screen if you can! If not, grab the DVD, popcorn and prepare yourself for a treat! Yes, I am purposely not telling you about the story! It will be the most interesting 70 minutes you have spent recently!

I caught this at SF Indiefest and didn't know what to expect beyond a tired retreat of "Momento" or "Pulp Fiction". But I was extremely surprised and impressed - "Ten 'til Noon" is a true original, a terrifically involving, funny thriller that is able to consistently surprise the audience.Well-acted, well-shot, and much slicker than the other low-budget fair at the festival, this movie is actually able to reinvent itself every ten minutes with significant shifts in tone, yet it never feels jarring or that somehow we've wandered into a different film. The result is a brilliant, wide-ranging view of a very small event (a 10 minute crime), and how it both effects and is effected by the players involved.One should be warned that the movie has it's fair share of potentially offensive stuff - sex, violence, language, and homosexuality, all presented in somewhat extreme fashion, which is a surprise given the overly mature, sober tone and pace of much of the film.If you have a chance to catch this film, do so. We, as an audience, aren't lucky enough to have a lot of movies like this out there.
