The Desperate Hour

And that's the film. Jogging for one hour straight, must of lost loads of weight. Also her phone bill must be high this month, overall a lockdown film.

This is not a bad film. From reading the reviews I was expecting it to be very weak, but it's not. I think the problem that the reviewers have is that this is NOT an action film. If you watch it not expecting action, shooting and chases, it is actually a very good film. Its true that 80% of it is the main character on a jog in the woods, but that doesn't mean there is no suspense. The acting is good, the scenery is beautiful and the plot is strong and believable. Well worth watching if you're not expecting high octane action or CGI nonsense.

Unusual script showcasing the skill and fitness of hugely talented screen heroine and mama lion, Naomi Watts. The film does not deserve such negative reviews. Watts pulls off a 21st century mom handling a crisis in the way we all live now - on the phone. The pacing and suspense are there. Give it a try.

That was visual torture. I should of turned it off after the first 15 minutes. I literally just spent an hour and a half watching Naomi Watts run through the woods while talking on a cell phone. I can't believe I just sat through that. If you decide to watch this, do yourself a favor. After the first 15 minutes skip all the way through to the last 15. Your welcome..3 stars..

This movie was just Watts the whole time. In the spirt of movies like this The Guilty and that flight movie where the guy is on the phone the WHOLE time. This movie was nothing new or special. I was a bit annoyed with the whole movie to be completely honest. I think the more ppl in the movie the better the movie. See I loved The Guilty but I did not like this one. Not saying you won't enjoy this one but it was just not interesting to me. I will also not be recommending it to anyone I know. As always be your own judge!
