Apokalyptinen scifi-trilleri These Final Hours käynnistyy jättiläismäisen meteoriitin iskeydyttyä maapallolle. Kun suurin osa ihmiskunnasta on jo pyyhitty kartalta, Australia odottaa vielä vuoroaan. Sen lounaisrannikon Perthissä eletään kirjaimellisesti kuin viimeistä päivää. Paitsi perusjätkä James (Nathan Phillips), joka koittaa tarjota sekasorron keskellä turvan pedofiilien kynsistä pelastamalleen pikkutytölle Roselle. (VL-Media)

A solid post-apocalyptic thriller depicting the horrors just before the end of the world. Drugs, whores, sex and murder all accompany the film. The protagonist is charismatic, so is the little girl, and the pacing is decent, so there's nothing to quibble with, four stars are in order. 70%

A modestly toned post-apocalyptic film that focuses more on depicting the atmosphere of the final hours before the impending catastrophe than on action moments. The film impressed me with its portrayal of different ways people act when they know their end is near. Some commit suicide, some choose a violent end towards their surroundings, some simply lock themselves at home and wait for the inevitable moment, and some head to a massive party where they completely let loose before the end. At the center is the main character, who is essentially grappling with how to spend these last moments. The emphasis on character development is definitely a positive aspect; no one overacted, and I believed in the actions of all involved. But don’t expect anything more because the budget was quite modest. Still, I can commend the visual style, which, with its yellowish filter, imparted a pessimistic tone to the film. It’s a thought-provoking film about how we would behave if something like this happened. Stick to moral principles or go wild? Everyone should answer that for themselves. I give it 65%.

I liked this. An apocalyptic world where rules don't exist, and people behave as they please. This is a topic that interests me. At first glance, it looks cheap, but that doesn't matter here at all. The film demonstrates that big budgets aren't necessary, and all you really need is a good script and occasionally an interesting actor. Some of the scenes here are really great - the Russian roulette, for example.
