You want the most out of the exciting parts in a movie.. saying you have 5 minutes on the clock doesn't really seem to thrilling... So in the scenes as they are flying away, (before the bomb goes off) you see them talking then you see them flying. Now that is the same scene of time. They are showing you while they are talking they have aliens chasing them. Now they can't make the movie split screen, were there is a bar in the center of the scene and they are talking on one side and it shows them getting chased on the other side. That takes away from the excitement because people want to focus on one thing at a time, not move their heads from one side to the other to see whats going on.

Even if they were to account for a full thirty seconds of flying, and a full thirty seconds of cabin time, that stills leaves approximately 30 seconds they were over by. I'm not talking about when the timers are off by mere seconds. I mean when there is a huge lapse in time that cannot be explained away. Also, I like the split screen theory you came up with, and I would also think it would be exciting to have the timer on screen the entire time, because nothing would be more thrilling for an audience than to actually see the timer countdown in real time as shit is flying all over and special effects budgets are ballooning.
