JamieWJackson I didn't know the budget for this until I finished watching it. I have to say, for that low of a sum, they did quite well. I rate it a 5/10, because the low-budget nature of it permeates the movie, but I'd rate it much higher if compared only to other low-budget films. The story and the ideas are very good, and there are a good number of enjoyable moments scattered throughout. Everyone in it seemed to like being there, and that helped make it more fun to watch than it would have been with "mailed-in" performances.This is a pretty low-key movie, so action fans may want to skip it, but if you're in the mood for something thoughtful, easy-going, and a little bit eccentric, without all the Hollywood bells and whistles, you'll probably enjoy it.

b o This is kind of movie filmmakers should be making not the 'crap' as fighting, zombies, superhero etc. kinds of movies. You know what I am talking about. 99% of all movies made these days are these 'ABSOLUTELY USELESS AND VALUELESS' kinds of movies. Time Expired is the kind of movie that has a true value. It is not the special effects that matter or how much of millions of dollars is spent on a movie, it is the thought behind the movie that counts. One can tell the people who did the movie really thought about life, what is important in it, and I wish I saw the movie when I was 18. These are the kinds of movies that make impact on life of others, and that's a beautiful thing. Thank you for making this movie. Acting was amazing as well. I loved it.

Phebe-Tucker Time Expired is a surprisingly well done gem of an ultra low-budget movie made by independent screenwriter Tucker and director Lawrence. As a story of a compulsive, lovable university-based meter maid with a terminal medical illness, the movie shows how well-meaning friends and family are emotionally disconnected from him and unable to understand his needs. They try to meet their own emotional needs as they prepare to lose him from their lives, and in the end there is an emotional re-connection and acceptance of the inevitable. The casting of characters is superb, especially the main character, his mother, girlfriend, his supervisor and the misguided psychiatrist. Keep up the good work. We need more films that don't have to rely on expensive special effects, violence or exploited sexuality.

kinikay Keep your ears out for Rachel Tucker and Nick Lawrence because you WILL be hearing their names in the future. I had the privilege of getting to meet this production team and watch a little bit of the filming. These guys were performing like right out of a Mission Impossible script. It was an uphill battle all the way and they had an amazing amount of obstacles thrown at them yet never was there a tear or frown of discouragement and never did they let ANYTHING slow them down! For a low budget film this was definitely a cut (post pun intended) way above the rest! Heck some schmuck even stole their slate from location and they did not flinch for a moment but made do with a dry erase board and a drumstick they tapped on the board like a clapper! These guys are like an early Dr. Dre of filmmakers. (He used to sell CD's out of his trunk) They wrote it planned it, filmed it, cut it, added sound and music and now are letting the public watch it for free. (no doubt to get you hooked drug dealer style!) And unless you have been through that process personally it really is like giving birth to and raising a child - watch this film to help put it through college ha-ha! BTW, Topher Owen (Jay) is a very entertaining actor - seems like he is Jack Black's twin brother that doesn't really look like a twin but acts like one!!Warning: Rachel Tucker can talk anybody into doing anything with her eyes -
