Stunde der Angst

A well played agoraphobic writer in the time of serial murderer Sam trapped in her slum apartment made suspenseful by the good acting of Naomi Watts.

I can only applaud this movie for portraying the most believable picture of anxiety and mental issues. And I love how we get the picture painted of New York and the world outside June's apartment only by looking out of her window and the occasional news broadcast.

This is the kind of movie I really want to re-visit. But I don't look particularly forward to another go at this darkness.. Anyway.. By the end you really feel like you know this woman. Even though we have only had insinuations about her life before we meet her. Insinuations is in fact key in the telling of this story. This movie is in my opinion very well written, very well, directed and very well acted. As a result I was very pleasantly surprised.

Watts is one of the best actors of the last 20 years. Without her, this movie would have been a disaster. Watch it, just for her performance alone.

I kept waiting for something that never happened. I missed the point or there was none. Watts was great and some plot twists were interesting but it didn't lead to anything, so this movie left me disappointed. There was so much to explore, such a shame it's all a big meh in the end.

I dont understand this great movie gets all this bad reviews. All i can say is Acting is great Cinematography is good Script is good Its not too long Music and editing is good Actually everything is pretty good and sometimes great so how anybody can give this movie less than average is a mystery or just plain trolling. Feel bad for the director that made a great job with obviously a pretty low mainstream budget
