At the movies May 3, 2008
88 Minutes Dr. Jack Gramm (Al Pacino) is a college professor who moonlights as a forensic psychiatrist for the FBI. When Gramm receives a death threat claiming he has only 88 minutes to live, he and his agents (Alicia Witt, Leelee Sobieski, Benjamin McKenzie, Amy Brenneman) must use all their skills and training to narrow down the possible suspects, who include a disgruntled student, a jilted former lover, and a serial killer (Neal McDonough) who is already on death row, before his time runs... (Coos Bay-North Bend The World, OR)
Al Pacino Traipses Through 88 Tick Tocking Minutes Apr 21, 2008
Throughout the ordeal, Gramm is constantly accompanied by one or another of the bevy of beauties naturally present in such a forensics superstar s life: his loyal personal assistant (Amy Brenneman), always ready with necessary information; a besotted graduate student (Alicia Witt); the dean of the university where he teaches (Deborah Kara Unger); and his star student (Leelee Sobieski) ... Starring Al Pacino, Alicia Witt, Amy Brenneman, Leelee Sobieski, Deborah Kara Unger, Benjamin McKenzie. (eFluxMedia)
New at the movies: '88 Minutes,' 'Kingdom,' 'Sarah Marshall' Apr 20, 2008
Among them: His longtime assistant (Amy Brenneman), his crackerjack graduate assistant (Alicia Witt), an old flame (Deborah Kara Unger) who also happens to be the dean of Gramm's school and a couple of brainy students (Leelee Sobieski and Benjamin McKenzie). Avnet, whose credits include "Fried Green Tomatoes," proves to be utterly inept in the action genre here, a bad sign for his next movie, the cop thriller "Righteous Kill," pairing Pacino and Robert De Niro.

Film review: '88 Minutes' drags on for an eternity Apr 20, 2008

Review: The longest 88 Minutes of your life Apr 19, 2008
But having Pacino attached to a crap script (by Gary Scott Thompson, in this case) is obviously catnip for decent actors; somehow, talented performers like Amy Brenneman, Alicia Witt, Deborah Kara Unger and Leelee Sobieski were compelled to hold their noses and sign on for this mess. (Should you be stuck watching this movie on a plane or on a bet, keep an eye peeled for Michal Yannai, who plays Forsters attorney in the trial scene early on. (MSNBC -- News)

'88 Minutes' Apr 18, 2008
No offense to them, but Alicia Witt, Leelee Sobieski and Amy Brenneman don't rank up high among his greatest female co-stars. Maybe that's why Pacino in this role is so uncharacteristically low-key: The Scent of a Serial Killer just isn't as potent as a Woman's. (Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, PA)
88 Minutes you won't get back -- plus another 20 Apr 18, 2008
It becomes obvious that someone close to Pacino's character has set him up, and it seems to be either someone at the university (Alicia Witt, Leelee Sobieski, Deborah Kara Unger, Benjamin McKenzie) or his assistant (Amy Brenneman) or maybe that security guard (Brendan Fletcher) who has nothing to do with the story but turns up anyway, as so many Canadian actors do in these cheapo film shoots done in our fair country ...

Film review: ‘88 Minutes’ is 107 minutes too long Apr 17, 2008
Among them: His longtime assistant (Amy Brenneman), his crackerjack graduate assistant (Alicia Witt), an old flame (Deborah Kara Unger) who also happens to be the dean of Gramm s school and a couple of brainy students (Leelee Sobieski and Benjamin McKenzie). We also get not one, but two, suspiciously goofy security guards and an angry ex-husband with a history of violence. (Somerset Daily American, PA)

Leelee Sobieski (co-star,1999's Eyes Wide Shut): "When you see one of his characters being super-friendly, you think he's just that way because the camera is watching.
