Imagine his 'Cowbell' character from SNL as a camp villain.

It's criminal how forgotten the 1995 thriller Nick of Time has become, especially because of Christopher Walken's fantastically diabolical performance as the movie's villain. Walken is one of today's most beloved actors and has been for decades now. He's appeared in more classics than a majority of working actors in both big and small roles, is absolutely fantastic in everything he's in, and has a completely singular approach to acting that no one else has.

'Nick of Time's Real-Time Format Keeps Things Interesting One of the things that makes Nick of Time such a fun thriller is that its story moves along in real time. Watson is given 90 minutes to assassinate Governor Grant, and the film clocks in at 90 minutes, so the heat is all the way on for the entirety of the film. Badham pulls out all the stops here, showing his expertise at keeping things intense and on the move from the minute the movie starts until the credits roll.

'Nick of Time' Is Christopher Walken's Most Underrated Movie Had it not been for Walken, this movie might be a fun but forgettable 90 minutes, but even that's being generous. It's rare to find an actor looking like they are having this much fun playing a villain. He endlessly elevates the source material like a catastrophic force of nature. There's a line early on in the movie that seals the deal for the ride to come. In a panic, Mr.

Throughout Nick of Time, Gene Watson is either trying to get out of his situation or is on the brink of following through with assassinating his target. This might be entertaining if he was on his own through the duration of his mission, but the movie is made endlessly more fun because Mr. Smith is always right over his shoulder. Smith is always keeping a close eye on his forced assassin, staying just a few feet behind and constantly whispering threats on his daughter's life.
