What a disappointing Comedy. The story is about a mundane pizza delivery guy's life takes an unexpected turn when two would-be masterminds kidnap him and give him 30 minutes to pull off a bank heist. Recruiting his best friend Chet to help him, the duo will have to face off against police, assassins and their own volatile relationship. I was so looking forward to this movie but i was sadly let down of what i saw. The humor didn't work for me and Aziz Ansari voice was so annoying to listen and don't get me wrong i don't hate this actor but it's just the voice that made me crazy.

Like 08's Pineapple Express, 30 Minutes or Less strives to make-up for it's shortcomings with foul language, nudity, and flat jokes, but with that in mind, it's also important to mention that there's still a lot of fun to be had with this. There are some genuine hilarious moments. The film is short and I think that's the main reason why this was not the disappointment it could have been. Not the best comedy of 2011 but I liked it!

It's a funny comedy with Aziz Ansari in it. Its good. Nothing more nothing less. Geared towards Judd Apatow style fans.

It was kinda dumb in some parts. But in others, it was good comedy.

After seeing the previews to this movie i believed that it would be an alright movie, but oh my i was not expecting it to be as funny as it was. Maybe because i set my standards lower, but the cast was wonderful. I am horrible with remembering names of actors, but there is a little bit of everything in here. You have to love the Datsun, even though you know it is cgi effect. i believe if you are expecing this to be one of the funniest movies you are going to be very dissapointed, just keep your standards in the middle and you won't be dissapointed. i was not expecting Jesse's character to be as asserative, especially after 'Zombieland'...but i was very wrong.

A pizza delivery guy, Nick, was kidnapped by Dwayne and Travis as they plot the assassination of Dwayne's father. They instructed Nick to rob a bank for them to pay the assassin. With a bomb set around him, Nick goes to his friend Chet to help him in the heist. He has only 30 minutes or less to accomplish it. *** This movie was highly entertaining when it comes to comedy. The humor naturally comes out as Jesse Eisenberg and Danny McBride portraying the roles. Supported by Nick Swardson and Aziz Ansari, this was really a good watch! I like the simplicity of the story and the good flow of scenes. Yeah. This is all bad executed good. Very nice. I laughed once in a while in this movie. GOOD! GOOD! GOOD!

I'm going to have to watch this once more or a couple more times to see if I think it's funny or not.There were some moments where I couldn't help but laugh & there were moments where I was like are you serious!? I was watching 30 Minutes Or Less thinking it might've been better as a drama/action flick.Danny McBride was pretty good when he was being serious & not playing a bumbling fool so I'd love to see him in more serious roles

It's not a perfect comedy by any means, but the cast is extremely likable and finds a way to pull humor out of the simplest of lines. I also liked the way the pace ramps up towards the last third of the film. Once the bank robbery is underway, the film is an energetic and insane chase to the finish.

If it weren't for those hilarious moments sprinkled throughout, this wouldn't be worth a rental.
