In Nick of Time, Johnny Depp is Gene Watson, a mild-mannered accountant whose arrival at Union Station turns into a living nightmare. Cornered by the menacing Mr. Smith (Christopher Walken), Gene is handed a gun and a horrific choice: assassinate the Governor before her speech ends, or his kidnapped daughter dies. Unfolding in relentless real-time, Watson must navigate a crowded hotel where conspirators are everywhere, racing against the clock to outwit a professional killer before the countdown hits zero.
