"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.
The talents of Gabriel Byrne and Kiersey Clemons can't save this underbaked comedy about how fame and money corrupt an artist. The main problem is a lack of character development and logic. As a result, too much is left for the audience to figure out what's going on and what's really at stake with the two main characters. Overall, a largely unsatisfying film.
