Poll: Movies Told in Real Time

Everyone loves a broken narrative but sometimes it's those movies told in real time that really hold our attention. For these films, events are portrayed at the same rate at which the characters experience them and thus make us feel like we're right in there with them! This means shorter runtimes that are perfect to squeeze in for that late night watch.

Which of these films told in real time did you enjoy the most?

(Please note: While not 100% of the movie may be shot in real time (barring perhaps an intro or ending), the majority is.)

After voting, you may discuss the poll here.
