The stealthy homicide cop (Robert De Niro) isn't just an ace detective, he's a bona fide celebrity. The evil foreign hooligans are jovial freaks who videotape themselves committing a pair of grisly murders and then come up with the scheme of hawking one of the snuff videos to a tabloid TV show. How American! How Warholian! How completely and utterly...unbelievable. With its fake-relevant media satire, its mismatched actors going through the motions of yet another tough-buddy romance, 15 Minutes is stacked with situations that are hyped yet numb, focus-grouped rather than felt. De Niro may never have walked through a role quite this joylessly, and he's matched for sheer dullness by the handsome but miserable-looking Edward Burns. D
