11:14

One of the free DVDs at the Netflix office was 11:14. It was a screener disc, but apparently this movie came out in 2003. There are some comparisons to Memento, but that's not really a good comparison. What the movie is, is an approximately 30-minute window around the time of 11:14 told from the varying perspectives of the people involved. As the story unravels, you begin to see how all of the people are connected and seemingly unrelated events are all part of a larger whole.

This isn't an amazing movie, but it's a pretty wacky comedy. Just about all of the characters are complete idiots, and get what's coming to them. So you can't feel bad for them so much as be amused by the craziness that's happening in a single night. I think it's a good film to watch if you're looking for something slightly off-the-wall and entertaining. I wonder if the time choice, 11:14, is in homage to Chris Carter.
