You could call Mr. Skolimowski, who is 77, an old dog, and while the multistranded, chronologically intricate narrative conceit of 11 Minutes isn’t exactly a new trick, it’s one he pulls off with devilish panache and startling impact. Read full review

Ultimately, 11 Minutes is as much a virtuoso party piece as anything - but it shows a veteran director in youthful form, clearly having a ball. Read full review

Just watch 11 Minutes like you're channel-surfing, only you don't have the remote and the roar of static between stations is steadily growing louder as the channels switch back-and-forth, faster and faster. Read full review

The dénouement when it comes doubles down on the madness and 11 Minutes is never boring, but neither is it quite as revolutionary as it thinks it is. Read full review

For a movie that is all about accumulation, it adds up to very little, and for a story all about connectedness, 11 minutes, intermittently enjoyable though it may be, never connects. Read full review

The film’s pitfalls lie in the style-over-substance route that has befallen many films that have such an annoyingly gimmicky framing device at its center. Read full review

Almost paralyzingly dull until its last few minutes. Read full review

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. An interesting movie from 2015.

It gives small sections from the lives of unrelated people that an event will affect, from the moment of the event. Since the interpersonal transitions in the movie are frequent and sudden, it is necessary to be patient while watching it. What I like the most is that a moment is shot from multiple angles and it comes to the screen at different times in the movie.

To the old man who draws, I think he's in a godlike role. Both seeing the ink dripping onto the picture in real life, and taking the child off the bus to the bus again.

What I don't understand is, did the girl with the dog survive? I didn't see you die, she.

There is no nudity in the movie, but there is a porn movie sound. There is no deep examination of the people involved in the incident. Only their current status is included. Still one of the interesting movies for me.… Expand

11 minutes is all I can spare to watch this movie. Either beginning, middle, or end... regardless where the movie's at. All I can spare is 11 minutes and that's just it. Nothing just gets interesting after those 11 minutes.
