Users review: ? Every second counts? Hours. Eric Heisserers first film, but he is best known for his scripts for the issue (the 2010 version) and Final Destination 5. He took a pretty interesting premise, but fails in delivering the film has too many awkward moments with a lot of forced dialogue. Take the scene where Paul Walkers character is given very bad news from a doctor for his wife. The scene felt completely forced and never managed to draw the audience in. There are many scenes like this in a few hours just feel completely out of place. Paul Walker is on his own for most of the film, and when the story begins to drag it for me to get involved. There was a little excitement and hardly any action scenes. Most of it is just seeing Walker speaks loudly to his newborn baby, or a rescue dog he met later in the film. If he does not speak for himself, the film we are unnecessary flashbacks about how he and his wife met. Time shouldve film full of tension, but failed to deliver Heisserer by adding so many unnecessary scenes and driven and do not rely on physical action Walkers alone.The film takes place in New Orleans during Hurricane Katrina as Nolan (Paul Walker) takes his pregnant wife Abigail (Genesis Rodriguez), a local hospital when she goes to work early. The hurricane is on the city hit hard when the doctors asked Nolan to stay in the waiting room, as they did with Abigail. A few hours later Dr. Jeremy (TJ Hassan) come with some bad news. Abigail has a complicated labor, newborn to stay on a ventilator for the next 48 hours until she learns how to breathe on her own. The mother did not. To make matters worse, the hospital hit hard by the hurricane, forcing everyone to evacuate. Nolan told the hospital to stay with the child until an ambulance can come back and have to safer ground. Cut from the outside world, Nolan is on his own forced quick decisions to make their baby to save a life. As the motto set? Every second counts? Eric Heisserer as a bad job, because there are a few seconds wasted on this film. He crawled at different times make me feel like watching more than two-hour film, when in fact it was only a 95-minute film. Paul Walker is not bad in this film, but he just does not have the right material for a film to run on its own. The most interesting moments of the film come when rescue dog showed up and this kind of life in an otherwise lifeless film brought. Hours are full of boring and awkward moments that carry this film. Walker was given less dialogue and flashbacks shouldve cut of the film. Some more exterior shots of the storm may have worked well for the shipwreck scene was very well shot. Overall it was not a terrible movie, but it failed me entertain or invested in the story as a keepsake. |
