 "It's a negative setup, focusing on dissension right off the bat. But Rapaport's slick technique also immediately draws viewers into the group's story..." |

 "Raimi falters with too much séance hocus-pocus... But the director does know how to mix up horror and humor, which isn't easy to do well." |

 "...gets points for not being the same silly minstrel show Perry has put forth a few too many times. But in the end, the movie is still a poetic injustice." |

 "It's all a little ho-hum. 'I didn't start the clock. I can't turn it back,' a character says. Moviegoers may feel the same way about time lost with 'In Time.' " |
