'30 Minutes Or Less': Five Other Walking Movie Tanks

by Kevin Sullivan In "half an hour or Less," which speeds into theaters today, Jesse Eisenberg's character, Nick, needs to take advantage of a bank before a explosive device shackled by his chest chimes. We will not let you know the way it all eventually ends up, but we will explain that Mr. Eisenberg is within very good company -- lots of other film figures have discovered themselves in the same situation that from time to time found happy being, but frequently led to a fiery blaze. Take a look at a number of Eisenberg's explosive device-bastic motion picture contemporaries following the jump! Annie (Sandra Bullock) in "Speed" Situation: After getting away the booby trapped bus that could not drive reduced than 50 mph, Annie will get kidnapped through the bomber (Dennis Hopper), strapped right into a pressure-sensitive explosive device and it is handcuffed to some subway pole. Outcome: Jack (Keanu Reeves) comes to save the day, disarming the explosive device and becoming the lady, although not before knocking unhealthy man's mind served by a subway light. V (Hugo Weaving) in "V for Vendetta" Situation: Like a final act of rebellion, V intends to inflate Parliament inside a dystopic future London, but dies shortly before he's in a position to ignite the fuse. Outcome: V's protege, Evey (Natalie Portman), finishes the task for him and transmits his body toward Parliament inside a subway vehicle rigged to blow up. Black suit guy (Suhail Aldabbach) in "The Hurt Locker" Situation: Sargent Top Class William James (Jeremy Renner) will get contacted to disarm a explosive device shackled by an innocent Iraqi guy. Though American soldiers approach the guy with suspicion, a translator assures James and the team the guy is innocent. James examines the explosive device and finds that it's locked to the guy with situation-hardened steel and it is set to visit off in 2 minutes. Outcome: James does not possess the equipment to get rid of the locks over time and it is instructed to allow the guy detonate. Max (Lloyd Bridges) in "Amazed" Situation: To be able to get revenge on his former partner, Irish terrorist Ryan Gaerity (Tommy Lee Johnson) fits a house-made explosive device to the man's uncle. Outcome: Jimmy (Shaun Bridges) arrives just over time to determine his uncle explode. J.D. (Christian Slater) in "Heathers" Situation: After aiding in a number of killings, Veronica (Winona Ryder) informs J.D. she'll no more kill and knockoffs a suicide. Troubled, J.D. straps a explosive device to his chest to be able to inflate our prime school. Outcome: Veronica momentarily stops J.D. from detonating, but doesn't kill him. He later sets the explosive device off before her. Inform us what you believe within the comments section as well as on Twitter!
