Chicago Tribune
It's a twisty, hell-for-leather crime thriller, and director Carl Franklin gives it all the slick, modern trimmings.

Rolling Stone
It's a kick to watch Denzel Washington do a movie just for the hot, sexy fun of it.

Mi è veramente piaciuto, trama avvincente, colpi di scena sopraffatti e ti fa impersonare nel protagonista in un modo incredibile, lo consiglio a chi piace il genere

Make sure to stay in your seats for this one, because even though that first act drags a bit, by the time you hit act two -- trust me -- all is forgiven. "Out Of Time's" final two-thirds is a dramatically ironic, tense, and thrilling ride that honestly kept me guessing for a good portion of it. Denzel Washington's increasingly frantic and dynamic lead performance helps keep you anchored to your chair as each new plot twist and near miss keeps you salivating for more. Director Carl Franklin and screenwriter David Collard have honestly killed with this fun little detective romp that didn't come anywhere close to overstaying its welcome. A surprisingly good time overall.

Franklin has enormous fun using these varied technologies to ramp up the suspense in a movie that is the most purely entertaining thriller since "No Way Out."

Seattle Post-Intelligencer
Although budding star Mendes and Washington sparked in "Training Day," there's less chemistry between them this time as she glowers and frets in her role as a big-city cop.

Washington makes it fun, which is about the best it could hope for.

Christian Science Monitor
It's a serviceable picture, but hardly a top-notch vehicle for Washington's remarkable gifts.

TV Guide Magazine
Dave Collard's preposterous script relies heavily on fortuitous coincidence... and thoroughly stupid behavior.

Out of Time may deliver headaches to users, but you got to admit, something's pretty suspicious is going on with this movie and only you can guess what's going on.

Has just enough Denzel juice to get charge through a weak setup and actual braindead side charactersand deliver a solid 2nd and 3rd act. Denzel is the only reason this remotelt worked.

Although the movie is rather predictable, it's still enjoyable to watch. Not the best Denzel Washington movie out there but still worth it if you're not looking for anything too special. My girlfriend definitely liked it and was at the edge of her seat!

Out of Time is entertaining but painfully predictable. 20 minutes into the movie i knew exactly what was going on. Chief Whitlock is not your typical Denzel role, and while he played it the best that he could, I just feel like it didn't suit him very well. The location of the movie didn't make a whole lot of sense, and that wasn't the only thing. Why would a detective from Miami and his ex-wife be investigating a crime an hour away in some small town? Miami PD isn't the FBI. The movie has a lot of plot holes and everything that happens is fairly obvious. It's entertaining, but it's not going to blow anyone away.

Moué baaaah, c’est un film où on sert plutôt la soupe aux (non politiquement correct et même pire ! censuré préventivement) avec bien sûr en tête d’affiche le gros Denzel en chaud lapin divorcé (mais pas tout à fait) qui se tape la femme des autres ! enfin, au moins une en tout cas. Il faut dire que c’est une chaudasse et du beau bois d’èbène (oh putain, à censurer ça aussi sur le site trucmuchegaucho) même si elle a une tronche (un peu carrément -merde, pas correct, ça aussi, fait chier) mais tout le reste, c’est de la pure bombasse, rien à dire. Une autre bombasse mais d’origine (enfin, plus bas, quoi) est aussi de la partouze, non, je veux dire de la partie (fine ?) dans le rôle précisément de l’ex (ou presque) de l’andouille des îles à col roulé, le gros Denzel, qui n’a d’ailleurs pas ici son doubleur habituel, il me semble ! mais bon… Quoi qu’il en soit, le minimium d’intérêt dans ce film n’est pas si inintéressant que cela (contre toute attente) surtout que le couillon Denzel (mais c’est quoi ce prénom, putain ? le diminitif de Denmoizelle ?) se retrouve englué dans une couillonnade qu’il n’a pas vu venir ! et pendant grosso merdo un tiers du film, le voir se dépatouiller du merdier où il est enlisé, s’avère assez drôle en fin de compte ! Plus on avance cependant, plus les rebondissements bidons se succèdent, encore plus à la fin, laquelle se révèle d’une certaine façon surprenante, puis juste après, le rebondissement encore plus bidon… final ! ça ne casse pas des briques tout ça mais on apprécie Dean Cain en salopard bien sympathique, ma foi… mais bon, on surnage ici globalement dans les affres du thriller assez foireux.
