"An L.A. Minute" is a satirical look at fame, success, the star-making machinery and the karma that attaches to all those who worship at the altar of celebrity. Best-selling author Ted Gold faces a moral dilemma when Velocity, an avant-garde performance artist and the living embodiment of integrity, rocks his 1% world.

A profoundly tacky and misguided endeavor.

The staging and shooting is so inept it makes Coleman Francis look like Jim Jarmusch.

It's actually kind of incredible that they've managed to make a movie so nonsensical it can't even convince us of something we already know is true.

An L.A. Minute proves that Kiersey Clemmons is a leading lady. She drives the film with her fearless performance.

Lyne Renée is too good for this film.

Glad I didn't listen to the PC reviewers who failed to understand that the writers of this movie were equal opportunity offenders. This is a savage look at Hollywood, star making machinery, performance art, with a little dig at the #MeToo overreachers. Gabriel Byrne and Kiersey Clemons are awesome and Bob Balaban nails his character perfectly. The idiot reviewers who didn't understand why the underbelly of L.A. was shown should be consigned to writing reviews of the Rock's next hundred movies. This was one and a half hours of sheer enjoyment. Laughed my ass off.

Just saw an early screening of this film, and I don't understand how the critics can be so wrong. It was very funny and told the truth. The acting was great and so was the writing. I, for one, highly recommend this film if you like satire.
