There is many things it can be,have you checked anything yet?I will mention things it could be, thermostat,radiator plugged,air flow through radiator blocked by debris on a/c cond or radiator,bad water pump,fans not working good,mechanical or electric not working,Check these things and see what is the matter.
I would check tstat and water pump first,it is heating up that quick it sounds like there is no water flow.
