Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
In "30 Beats," the conversational foreplay is hopelessly flaccid.
Despite the presence of such actors as Lee Pace, Jennifer Tilly, Justin Kirk, Thomas Sadoski and Paz de la Huerta, there is no character insight allowed by the bumper-car storytelling.
That's all that happens: drift from one unrealized, uninteresting character to another.
"30 Beats" goes on to a meandering orgasm of multiple, less-than-dangerous liaisons meant to titillate, fascinate and illuminate. But once the sweat dries, it irritates.
