Talk:88 Minutes

Lots of problems with the plot summary...

Who is Mike Sharp? Who is Carol? These characters are just thrown out without explanation. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.30.97.106 (talk • contribs) (11:01, 10 September 2007)

It is actually excessively detailed---so much so that it should be given a spoilers tag---but is so poorly-written that it gives away details without any background as to their meaning. There are numerous grammarical, spelling, spacing, and word-choice errors, it boggles the mind. The plot summary has the cumulative effect of overwhelming the article, giving away details, and thoroughly confusing the reader. ---RepublicanJacobite_{The'FortyFive'} 16:36, 28 October 2007 (UTC)

Two years later and this plot summary is still a disaster. Trst (talk) 01:02, 5 August 2009 (UTC)

Straight to DVD?

I think imdb has this listed as going straight to DVD (the first in Al Pacino's career). Anyone know? 71.194.163.223 01:02, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

Filming Locations

Part of the movie was filmed at the building now being used by the Vancouver Olympic Organizing Committee before they moved in. The pivitol scenes at the end were on the 7th floor (you can almost see my office door on the floor below) --64.180.14.180 (talk) 07:30, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

Plot Summary

I think, until it's wide release, that we should only use a plot outline, to avoid spoilers. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.176.129.70 (talk) 00:25, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

We shouldn't "censor" the plot just because it isn't out yet, but we could use a spoiler warning. Moccamonster Talk 17:43, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

Spoiler

I think it should contain a spoiler warning. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.188.92.130 (talk) 22:25, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

See WP:Spoiler. Wikipedia does not use spoiler warnings; this is not a movie website, it is an encyclopedia, and as such it should be expected (and in fact is much preferred) if the Plot section of a movie contains, well, the entire plot of the movie.Brainmouse (talk) 17:19, 5 April 2008 (UTC)

Running time

The Running time for 88 Minutes is 110 minutes? Anybody think that's sorta odd? Cirt (talk) 00:26, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

No it's not odd, because it starts before the phone call and ends after the 88 minutes are up, plus the credits. so ya —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.67.167.144 (talk) 16:47, 3 May 2008 (UTC)

Lydia

"Gramm arrives and finds that Lydia (who is actually Lauren under a pseudonym) had set this up and was working with Forster all this time." This is the first mention of Lydia. She needs to be introduced before we're told she's also Lauren. 66.234.222.23 (talk) 01:23, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

OK, I've added the point that she was one of his "appeals" attorneys. Apparently, she wasn't formally an appeals attorney, but getting into her relationship with him probably requires delving into too much minutiae. 66.234.222.23 (talk) 01:53, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

Gramm an Jerry

• The visible story is not written down on the page. I think it#s difficult to decide, who initiates the game and who is hunting whom? The ladys interests are bulit upon love or rivalery, the male students act on revenge or powergaining and the prof. may be

a double player.Lately he possibly murdered the latest victims, borderlining Foster... who really is arrested and got more time as told.88 minutes hanging on a phone infusion means real struggle in lining!--188.100.203.56 (talk) 09:16, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

WTF? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.42.66.161 (talk) 01:01, 31 May 2011 (UTC)

Runners at the first floor...

The mixed up story lacks of motivated relations to seminar exercises or revealing aims. Everybody is as bad as he/she can and win nothing. Murder for murder running against the hour(s)!Vandalism, which might be done by Grammar himself or this unknown bgrd rider takes place. Motivations are not balanced for a thriller format; just actions or affects told in time. Bat!--Raskollnika (talk) 09:27, 3 February 2011 (UTC)
