May 10, 2019 · I watched this 1995 thriller for the first time ever last night. I have to say that I really enjoyed it, despite its obvious flaws. Here are a few thoughts on its positive and negative points. POSITIVES. *Excellent kinetic direction from John Badham.
Nov 22, 1995 · Roger Ebert. November 22, 1995. 4 min read. The underlying gimmick of “Nick of Time” will be familiar to anyone who has been unable to avoid the TV commercials. A man is chosen at random, handed a gun, and told that his young daughter will be killed unless he assassinates the governor of California.
Nick of Time is a 1995 American political action thriller film produced and directed by John Badham and written by Patrick Sheane Duncan. It stars Johnny Depp, Christopher Walken, Charles S. Dutton, and Courtney Chase.
It isn't the worst '90s action thriller, but by bungling a story pitting Johnny Depp against Christopher Walken, the rote Nick of Time ranks among the most disappointing. Read Critics Reviews

Solid ‘real-time’ 90’s shithouse thriller with a perpetually sweaty Depp falling into the wrong place wrong time hitchcockian role and a sinister Walken having being an evil prick. Fun, dumb, and entertaining but this would’ve been a better Hitchcock movie in 1956 with Edith Head costumes and a bewildered Jimmy Stewart.

A suspenseful movie, Hitchcockian in that an innocent man gets involved in a deadly plot. An intriguing plot that had me thinking what I would do in the situation. Christopher Walken was, as usual, creepy and Johnny Depp was believable. The rest of the cast was very competent. I'd advise renting it.
