24 Little Hours

I was intrigued by all the glowing user reviews of this movie. Having laboriously worked my way through this truly appalling, dreadful thing, I emerged at the far end wishing it had English subtitles (I was bought up in south London but the echoing audio quality which sounded as if the cast had spoken into metal buckets, was so poor I missed half the dialogue - perhaps no bad thing). The acting was dreadful (and - for the record - there are a couple of really talented actors among this ensemble). The dialogue sounded like it had been written by a 14 year old who had secretly gained access to his uncle's slasher movie stash. I could imagine the mocked up police interview room to be in a large Isle of Dogs warehouse, rented for 2/6 a week. Apparently the production shoot was 8 days - does this not say something? Trite, formulaic, unimaginative, and an obviously rushed production. Of course, it is easy for someone like me to criticize, but other, much better films with even smaller budgets have produced so much more. I couldn't recommend this to a friend.

This film about a silent ex con seeking revenge is far more complicated for it's own good and many of the characters are straight from a cartoon I think. But its watchable but very bloated with an overly complex story and not enough action. But for a low budget film I've certainly seen worse.

If not the worst then close to it. Bad acting, bad production, flimsy characters. I only gave it a 1 because I had to give it something

I enjoyed Marc Bannermans performance but thats just about where the enjoyment ended. Story wasn't great, acting was questionable, effects were poor. More like a wet midweek episode of Line of Duty than a movie, some parts were so unbelievable that I actually wondered if this was supposed to be a dark comedy! Watch if you've got nothing better to do. I hope Bannerman gets some more (better) job offers off the back of this

Is this supposed to be a comedy ?

Awful acting, unrealistic scenarios and all round bad.

Couldn't watch after the first ten minutes of the annoying opening scene at the police station.

Also the background rap (or attempted rap) music is terrible.

Only one thing could have saved this and that would be for it not to have been made.

Awful.
