Gone in Sixty Seconds

“Needed non-stop action. Too much talk, too long a run time. 'Gone in Sixty Seconds' does produce some fun action, but I personally felt an extra notch of thrill was needed with this; especially as it lasts for 118 minutes. Some parts are very ploddy, a shortened run time would've worked wonders. Nicolas Cage is amusing in this, his character Memphis is actually quite goofy. The cast around him are pretty good, with a whole host of familiar names/faces. Angelina Jolie appears as Sway, with Giovanni Ribisi (Kip) and Vinnie Jones (Sphinx) in there too. Christopher Eccleston, meanwhile, makes for a decent bad guy. Good fun, could've been far more entertaining though.”

“**Ocean’s Eleven vibes with an endearing ensemble cast and cars instead of casinos.** Gone in 60 Seconds is fun. Plain and simple. This entertaining, high-energy action romp is fueled by Nic Cage in his prime, gorgeous cars, an exceptional cast, and an unencumbered spirit that embraces the cheese. Gone in 60 Seconds immerses its viewers in a world of moral thieves with deep bonds and a strong code. As the movie progresses, discovering more about each character raises the stakes as the audience fears what could happen to these endearing bandits. Even though the plot has plenty of cheese, it’s balanced by the excellent execution and commitment of the cast. Peak Nic Cage makes the whole film sublime and delightful.”

“Before there was fast the furious, there was gone in 60 seconds. Stealing cars in less the 60 seconds with Anglina Jolie by his side.”
