Sensational Noir Thriller!

"Saw this one during it's brief theatrical run and was BLOWN AWAY! TEN 'TIL NOON is a highly original modern film noir with a terrific structural gimmick - the entire film takes place in a ten minute time span, between 11:50 and noon. Each time the clock strikes noon, the film rewinds and places us in the point of view of a different character. What we end up with is an incredibly layered web, with each new segment completely turning the story on it's head. The result is invigorating. I've never seen anything quite like it.
TEN 'TIL NOON also has the requisite thriller elements, all in fine form - the femme fatales, the hitmen, the double-crosses, sex and violence galore. But the unique story structure puts it over the edge into great filmmaking. This is a fantastic, highly original indie film that demonstrates there are still new ways to tell a story.
So glad this is FINALLY coming to DVD!!! It bears many, many viewings."
Sexy scenes and lots of surprises!

"I don't usually give a movie a five-out-of five star rating. But I give this movie five stars for two reasons:
1. It's an intelligent movie where nothing is predictable. Even one of the climatic execution scenes took me by surprise.
2. It's an intelligent move with lots of really good sexy scenes. Some of the sex scenes were steamy hot, and some of them were funny.
But most of all, the DVD is filled with a lot of extra stuff. You could see that the people behind this film went that extra step every step of the way. I can't wait to see what they come up with next."
Great film... I enjoyed the hell out of it!

"Clever, quirky characters, and excellent acting. Full of sex and violence--not for the easily offended--but delivered with panache, and always in service to the plot. Really funny too... I loved all of the dark comedic moments. An excellent first-effort by screenwriter Paul Osborne. Can't wait to see what's next."
Great Independent Flick

"Nicely told story of the same ten minutes as seen from several different points of view. Good twist toward the end. I don't watch many independent movies, but I'm glad I saw this one. It's one to keep for your collection--definitely worth watching again and again.
(btw...it does have sex and violence, so I wouldn't recommend it for persons under 17)."
