Movie Info

Director Carl Franklin and actor Denzel Washington team up again (following 1995's Devil in a Blue Dress) for the crime thriller Out of Time. Washington stars as Matt Lee Whitlock, the well-respected chief of police in a quiet Florida community. While in the process of getting a divorce from fellow detective Alexandra (Eva Mendez), Matt engages in an affair with his high school sweetheart Anne (Sanaa Lathan). Unfortunately, Anne is married to the extremely jealous Chris (Dean Cain), a former pro football player who works as a security guard. After a major murder occurs in the community, Matt finds himself the main suspect. With the help of his medical examiner pal Chae (John Billingsley), Matt must solve the case before he is found guilty himself. Out of Time premiered at the 2003 Toronto Film Festival.

    Quite good and borrows a lot for a modern noir

    A so-so bordering on the not-very-good Denzel cop thriller as he tries to avoid becoming a suspect in his exes double murder investigation. It would have worked better with a lesser actor who'd match the quality of the script.

    just suppose everything you knew,everything you trusted,became a lie. For Matt Lee Whitlock,(denzil washington) that nightmare has become a reality. when Banyan Key is shocked by a double homicide, Matt starts his investigation,and as details of the case begin to surface, all of the evidence seems to point to Matt as the prime suspect. its really a race against time for matt to solve the murder,before others start to uncover the clues and point the finger at him. love denzil he is one of my fave actors~! i enjoyed this flim
