FilmBuff1994 Gone in Sixty Seconds is a decent movie with a reasonably well developed plot and a great cast. Nicolas Cage, Robert Duvall, Angelina Jolie and Giovanni Ribisi certainly make it worthwhile, bringing their A-Game for every scene and shining in roles that they easily could have phoned it in for, but they are simply too dedicated. They look like they are having a lot of fun in their parts, making it a pleasure for us to watch them. It is certainly an immensely cheesy film, there is a lot of moments, even entire scenes, that just make no effort to be anything more than light entertainment, which there is nothing wrong with, but there are so many chunks of dialogue that made me roll my eyes with there ridiculousness. It is very lazily written and really makes no effort to be a different type of film from the works that clearly inspired it. There are loads of cliche moments, as well as a bunch of throwaway dialogue that was clearly never looked over or considered before filming. Cheesy, but not terrible. Not a terrible movie by any means, Gone in Sixty Seconds does not hit it out of the park, but it is enjoyable for what it is and is worth your while if you are a Cage fan. In order to save his brother, a retired thief must steal several cars in one night. Best Performance: Nicolas Cage

Car theft in Long Beach went down 47% when Randall "Memphis" Raines walked away from the life. He gets dragged back into it by assuming the job his brother Kip screwed up for stolen-car broker Raymond Calitri: steal 50 exotic cars and have them on a container ship by 8 AM Friday morning, and he got this news on a Monday. With Calitri threatening to kill him and Kip, and the police GRAB unit breathing down his neck, Memphis reassembles his old crew and attempts to pull off the logistically impossible But with speed to burn and attitude to spare Memphis re assembles his old team including Robert duval ( deep Impact) and vinney Jones as Spinx's his first acting role ) this fast movie floors it in full throttle and to race to pull off the ultimate car heist 50 cars in 24 hours this action packed thrill ride comes out fast and never slows down a remake of a 1974 and before fast and the furious this is the king before the the amazing fast films. So yes, this movie isn't an "epic, life-affirming post-9/11 picture with obligatory social commentary" effort. The pacing is uneven, some of the scenes could have been cut and not all the actors tow the line. But car movies rarely come better than this. So if you hate cars... why are you even reading these comments. Films where the plot takes a backseat to the set-pieces. Films where the dialogue isn't so cleverly written that it ties itself in endless knots of purple prose. There are HUNDREDS of films that fit the bill... but in my opinion Gone In Sixty Seconds is one of the better ones.an Eleanor is cool looking but the Ferraris and porches look hotNicolas Cage ...

SnoopyStyle Kip Raines (Giovanni Ribisi) is a brash car thief. His brother Memphis (Nicolas Cage) retired from the business to run a kiddie go-cart business. After a Kip screw up, Atley Jackson (Will Patton) forces Memphis to take over the job as the villain Raymond Calitri (Christopher Eccleston) keeps Kip hostage. Memphis has to steal 50 specific cars in 4 days. He reassembles some of his old crew with Kip's new crew. Detectives Castlebeck (Delroy Lindo) and Drycoff (Timothy Olyphant) are hot on his trail.Ribisi is his usual jittery hopeless loser character. Cage is toned down in this one. In a sense, that's indicative of a missed opportunity. It tries to be serious a little and that's the wrong path. This needs to be silly and fun. It also needs more Jolie who is really only tied for the third lead with a dozen other actors. This really needs to be fun wall-to-wall car chases. There is not enough of them and after an initial chase, it takes too long to get to the next one.

dragokin Gone in Sixty Seconds came on TV the other night and proved me right in avoiding it in theaters back in the day. Nicolas Cage offers his standard performance, Angelina Jolie gives a lesson in "wooden acting", while the rest of the crew duly follows.There is nothing essentially new or wrong in this movie. It introduces us to a world of small time crooks, car thieves and semi-competent police officers. Since the story revolves around cars, you might even enjoy it if you're into cars yourself.I'm always impressed how such mess of a movie gets funding and then even earns money at the box office.
