Review of 25th Hour (2002) by Alex A — 16 Jan 2015
Underneath 25th Hour's simple premise is an incredibly human, at times disturbing yet relatable character study. Bolstered by its great performances, rich dialogue, beautiful cinematography melded with a vibrant color palette and a mostly strong script, this is very recommendable.
I wasn't a big fan of 25th Hour's ending however as it felt overdrawn and prolonged. A more emotionally satisfying conclusion in my opinion would have been Monty actually going to prison, with his fate being left for the audience to decide.
