Review of Hours (2013) by Patrick K — 18 May 2014
Paul Walker prior to his death has been involved in some pretty entertaining, high octane stuff. This film isnt like those as its an edge of your seat thriller thats a little short of thrills but does have a fair bit of tension as the film progresses.
Before sunrise on August 29, 2005, Nolan Hayes (Paul Walker) arrives at a New Orleans hospital with his pregnant wife, Abigail (Genesis Rodriguez), who has gone into early labor. What should be one of the happiest days of Nolan's life quickly spirals out of control when the birth goes tragically wrong and Hurricane Katrina ravages the hospital, forcing an evacuation.
Told to stay with his child, who is on a ventilator, and await transfer by ambulance, Nolan and his newborn are soon cut off from the world by power outages and rising floodwaters. When no one returns to help, Nolan faces one life-and-death decision after another, fighting to keep his daughter alive, as minute-by-agonizing minute passes, becoming torturous hours.
Its not the greatest movie ever however it was good enough to keep me hooked for the whole 97 mins.
