1:54 is a psychological thriller about a high school student who is pushed to the edge because of the pressure he endures and where human limits reach the point of no return. At the age of 16, Tim is both intelligent and talented but shy young man gifted with a natural athletic ability for running. However, the last four years have been tough on him because of his rival Jeff and his friends. In his last year of high school, Tim is sick and tired of feeling like a loser, and wants to shine for once. He decides to stand up to Jeff by dethroning him in the 800 meter championship, the event Jeff is known for in school. But behind the competition and rivalry, a secret that Tim never wants to be revealed is wreaking havoc. (Busan International Film Festival)

The Canadians have never been too good with art. The music isn’t any good, except for a few exceptions. The movies aren’t any good, except for a few exceptions. And this movie certainly isn’t that exception. It was a drama that copied whatever it could and did it poorly.
