    One of the dumbest thrillers to arrive it theaters in a long time.

    The preposterous 88 Minutes is a serial killer movie starring Al Pacino's festival of hair.

    Preposterous, empty-headed and tedious.

    This may be the most preposterous movie of the year. It is certainly the most ridiculous movie starring an Oscar-winning actor.

    This ridiculous thriller would be hard-pressed to last much longer than its title in theaters before doing time on DVD, as is already the case in many overseas territories.

    Actually, it's pretty much the definition of absurd.

    Ludicrous in the extreme, the picture easily snatches from "Revolution" the prize as Al Pacino's career worst.

    We may have to sit through worse films to come this year, but with any luck, there'll be none as guilelessly, idiotically misogynist as this one.

    A stinker, the more so for the thespian excesses of the accomplished cast.
