11:59 (2005)

One of my all time favorites.

Excellent but underrated film

One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

OK,i love movies,all kinds: independents, big budgets, internationals. Usually, my rating of movies is similar to the general score of IMDb. But in the case of this movie(and batman rise), i don't agree with the score and i suspect that members and friends of the cast have deliberately writes theses hight score review.I think the director was more thinking to show off how good he is in all kind of camera work (shaking hidden camera,long camera pose, all camera angles,fast frames shot) then telling a good story.The movie is a pretentious low budget flick with want to be actors(and a director) with so many big plot holes it could fill a black hole.Yes, i am frustrate. Not because i just seen a bad movie but because of these people reviews that try to manipulate a score for there own agenda and think they are so smart doing so.....sorry guys, the movie speak from itself so is my score.i speak french, that will explain my poor writing in English

I saw this film at the Idaho International Film Festival (it was actually the only feature I was able to attend), and it intrigued me.There are a few flaws, mainly a few actors who didn't give it their all, I felt, but the lead actor helps the film by taking it seriously and overshadowing the others. I'm definitely looking forward to seeing him in future films.My biggest qualm with "ll:59" was the over-use of choppy editing. I understand the need to show disorientation, but the scenes in the news room would often cut - not to another angle - but to what appeared to be another take from the same angle. Just very unnatural.However, the film got all of these kinks out of its system by the end of the first act, and I felt the rest of the film carried itself along quite nicely.I would be extremely happy if my first film (which I am currently producing) turns out as well as this film has. Great job, guys, and good luck and God bless on your future endeavors!

I saw this movie for the first time in Kansas City and was absolutely intrigued! I believe this movie was an all around excellent planned out plot and story! The values and ethics established in this film gave a great look to the value of life, which is commonly taken for granted. A job well done to all of the actors and actresses! I was really hoping the boss would get hit by a car, but I guess you can't always get what you wish for!! Raymond Andrew Bailey did an INCREDIBLE job as the lead Aaron, very heart-felt! He made tears come to my eyes! I hope to see him in many more films! Jamin Winans did an awesome job on this feature and I can't wait for future productions!

Waking up in the middle of a baron field is seldom a pleasant experience. Especially when you have no idea how you got there or even any recollection of the past 24 hours. 11:59 is a great Indy film that delves into what happens when some unknown force gives you a glimpse of the day after tomorrow. Then gives you the chance to make things right. The idea can be somewhat compared to the make-things-right-to-move-on film Groundhog Day in which Bill Murray is given the chance to repeat Groundhog Day over and over again until every event of the day is made right. In this film, the lead Character, Aaron the jaded photojournalist (played by the wonderful Raymond Andrew Bailey) gets a glimpse of the day after tomorrow. After learning of a tragic death, he is given the chance to save a life. This movie is thought provoking, attention grabbing, and a definite must-see. THE best Indy film of the Kansas International Film Festival (in my opinion). SEE IT!
