Hours

I watched this movie weeks before Paul Walker had passed and thoroughly enjoyed it. I must admit I've always been a fan of his. Yet I can indisputably say without being biased, that he played this role with excellence.

OK, so the move was not a fast paced action or romantic, date flick, but it was a well written realistic Drama / Thriller.

While the ending may have been somewhat predictable. The rest of the film with it's characters and plots certainly was not. You will find quite a few surprises.

I am sure it will do well if/when it's released in theaters around the world. What a great way to pay tribute to him by releasing it to as many screens as they can. At least I really hope they do. If you can't go to see it. I'd say it's worth renting anyway.

I seen the trailer for this movie shortly after Paul Walker had tragically died. Immediately I wanted to see the film after watching the trailer as it seemed like Walker puts out his best acting performance yet!

I am a huge movie buff and I consider Paul Walker to be one of my favorite actors of all time. When he died it really hit me. He had just made it to the top of the film industry and sadly it all ended quickly.

I had ordered this movie on demand as it didn't come to theaters by me in Wisconsin. After watching the film I was stunned by Paul Walker's performance. He showed true raw emotion and this was his film! Great acting. The only problem I had with the movie was that there were a few plot holes that could have been fixed. I didn't like the ending either.

I would give Walker's performance an 8/10 which is pretty good in my ranks. The movie itself I would give it a 6/10. If the plot holes were fixed and if they would gave some of the actors bigger roles in the film I think this could have been a really great film.

My suggestion to people who want to see this movie or are fans of Paul Walker is see this movie. You might like it more than I did but you wont be disappointed by Paul Walker's best acting to date.

My favorite films that I have seen of Paul include: All the Fast and Furious movies, Joy Ride, Running Scared, Into the Blue, Eight Below, and Takers. I still want to see the Lazarus Project yet which is an older film of his. It will be interesting to see how Fast 7 turns out. Huge fan of the Fast and Furious series. Also his last completed film Brick Mansions will be coming out pretty soon. Looks really good check out the trailer for that!

Paul Walker was supposed to be lead roles in other films such as Nicholas Sparks newest movie "The Best of Me" and Agent 47. Paul Walker went too soon. Way too young and still had a lot to prove. I still to this very day can't believe he is gone, it just seems like a very bad nightmare. I am going to miss you man, hope I get a chance to meet you someday up there. "IF ONE DAY THE SPEED KILLS ME, DO NOT CRY BECAUSE I WAS SMILING!" ~Paul Walker. Rest In Peace Bro :)

In August 2005, in New Orleans, Nolan Hayes (Paul Walker) brings his pregnant wife Abigail (Genesis Rodriguez) with Eclampsia to the Saint Mary Hospital. Abigail delivers a premature baby and dies and the baby needs to be kept in a ventilator. A few hours later, the Hurricane Katrina hits the hospital, cutting the power and the hospital is evacuated. Nolan stays with his daughter since the equipment is not portable and soon he finds that the battery is in the end of its life and only can hold three minutes of charge. He finds a battery charge and has initially to crank every three minutes. As long as time goes by, the battery holds less charge. But the situation gets worse when marauders invade the hospital.

"Hours" is a dramatic and tense movie with Paul Walker that has magnificent performance in the role of a father that struggles to keep his baby alive during the tragedy of the Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans. The screenplay is filled with his recollections of his beloved wife that breaks the tension. Despite the story is almost theatrical in one location, it never disappoints. My vote is seven.

Title (Brazil): "Contagem Regressiva" ("Countdown")

This film in a sentence: What a father will do to keep his premature daughter alive, when the world is falling down around him.

Why this film isn't receiving a better rating I won't know. This is the best acting from Paul Walker I think anyone will have seen. Just watch it (especially if you thought 'The Impossible' was a great piece of film)

One of the core roles a man feels he needs to provide for his family is protection and to provide; this film shows this by putting Nolan (Walker) in scenarios where you feel his struggle to keep the only thing he has safe.

Review by: Dare Devil Kid (DDK) Rating: 3.5/5 stars

An intriguing concept that could have fallen flat on its face with the kind of premise and setting it's based in. On the surface the film does appear to be too one-dimensional, linear, and somber for a disaster film. Also, initially, it does tend to lag a bit and might permeate a false sense of tedious pacing, so it's important that you be patient and allow yourself the chance to be rewarded as the pace and tension kicks in with further proceedings.

Kudos to the Director for keeping his viewers engrossed till the end and making us care enough for the only two relevant characters in the entire film, to the point that we simply need to find out their eventual fate. What you must understand before approaching "Hours" is that it isn't your staple disaster movie bonanza, infused with state-pf-the-art SFX and high octane action and suspense. Yes, the suspense and tension is there, but in a much more dramatic and character driven sort of way.

Coming down to the performances, there is virtually just one actor in the entire film and nobody else. With just a newborn infant for company throughout the film and a St. Bernard canine towards the latter half for added measure, Paul Walker astoundingly shoulders the entire film and his performance gradually grows on you. Sadly we won't get to see any more of his newly harnessed acting skills, so revel in what is indubitably his best act ever. May his soul rest in peace.
