Overtime
Raph and Max only kill bad guys, and only after their boss Sam, a high-powered attorney, has cashed a nice paycheck for getting her sleazy clients off the hook. When Sam sends our heroes on a routine hit, they find themselves caught up in a conspiracy they never imagined. But whatever trouble they've gotten themselves into is nothing compared to the wrath of Raph's wife if he doesn't make it home in time for his son's birthday party. Being a good hit man is tough; being a good dad is killer!

best movie i've ever seen.
if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.
The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
Even now a few hours later, I'm still not sure what to give this movie. I went into it expecting it only to be stupid and ridiculous, because what else is a movie starring one-third of Head Cheese (Head counts as as third!) going to be? But it was far more ridiculous than even I expected. But in a stupidly, goofy, surprisingly entertaining way. Don't get me wrong; this isn't a "good" movie. The acting is . . . well, it stars Al Snow. The dialogue, man, the dialogue. It's something. Something that you can easily imagine the two writers being high as heck and laughing their butts off as they write it (though I give credit; there are some very clever lines scattered about). The IMDb estimate for the budget is $5,000 (yes, thousand). And that shows. But damn if Al doesn't do his damnedest to bring his domestic yet shadily employed character to life, and John Wells and his engaging smile delivers some of the cheesiest, stupidest freaking jokes and inappropriate laughter with a sociopath's sincerity and charm that's hard to resistYou know those movies that people say "You just have to turn your brain off for a little while" about? The kind of B-movie that's so bad, it's ultimately good? *This* is exactly that kind of movie. Just sit back and let the only slightly above "Beavis and Butthead" humor wash over you like a (insert favorite metaphor here). Okay, since I rate movies not based on their quality, but on how much I enjoyed them, then I guess I've got to give "Overtime" a 7/10. Because stupid as it is, I laughed my ass off through the entire thing. Sometimes at that stuff they wanted me to laugh at, sometimes not, but it was all good. In fact, of all the B-movies I've watched over the last year, this is either the best, or at least tied with (I can't believe I'm saying this) "Sharknado" (yes, I laughed my ass off through that one). Give it a shot. If you're inclined to drink or indulge in some of the Reefer Madness, you might do that before and during the film.
The premise is simple and old as late night TV. But here, it's the two hit men who pull this one off. Campy, yet not overboard. Funny dialogue that doesn't take itself too serious, yet interjects a lot of "Yeah-Right!". And under it all, they rip right into the whole Alien Monsters loose in a Lab trope with some beautiful zingers. And Al Snow carries his part with justice. It good to see a WWF guy step into the acting ring and show his real talents.And most of all, the big question is whether the guys will make it home in time for the kid's Birthday party.This one is great tension relief for a Friday Night after a Long work week. Nice, Light and Funny as heck.
Overtime has the perfect mix of action and comedy. Great production quality for any film, even more impressive for an indie, with solid acting and directing. Overtime embraces a campy tone, knows exactly what it is and delivers, never taking itself too seriously. While light in tone, the film also takes time to develop its characters and I found myself quickly endeared to them. The characters interjecting their personalities in even the most action packed of scenes. My only complaint was that it was over too soon and I was left wanting more, but really that's not a complaint at all. If your looking for a fun movie that will entertain while lifting you spirits this is the one.
Overtime is a popcorn-crunching, belly laughing, jump out of your seat action movie. The movie is a whopping big surprise of a feature film, with the quality of Los Angeles filmmaking and all the fun of a crowd pleaser on steroids.Raph and Max are a couple of suburban buddies collecting a cake, a gift and a clown for Raph's 9-year son's birthday party. Just so happens that their day jobs are hit men, employed by a lawyer who gets really bad guys off the hook, takes their money, and sends Raph and Max to remove them from circulation.From a suburban home to an abandoned warehouse full of zombie aliens, Raph and Max never veer from their real mission: getting the party right by 7:00 pm.Al Snow and John Wells have the perfect chemistry to make Overtime click. Matt Niehoff and Brian Cunningham, the director and DP, make Overtime a romp and a thriller. I saw this film at a Fright Night Film Festival in an overflowing screening room - and that room rocked with cheers and laughter and screams of delight.Gotta see Overtime. I predict it will be the sleeper hit of 2012.
