Why so much hype?

Surprisingly incoherent and boring

Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

Saw Michael Madsen on the cover, along with David Carradine and Paul Sorvino. Figured it was one of "Bill"'s last movies, how bad could it be? AWFUL.The plot is completely incomprehensible. I still have no idea what was going on. What I could piece together is that Madsen, DMX, Tommy Wong, and a couple other gangster-types are summoned by Carradine's character to repent for their hit-man ways, and everything goes awry. Good-sounding plot, poorly executed. The dialogue is awful, ditto for the music. DMX is a rapper, not Hans Zimmer. By the way, the opening credits made me laugh. What was made out to be a classy opening was just pathetic CGI that lacked creativity or style.The acting is actually all right. Madsen plays Mr. Blonde again (the only role he's shown us he CAN play), while DMX and the rest of that crew perform reasonably well. Tony D'Amario and Tommy Wong are poor but not as bad as they could be. David Carradine is all right, nothing compared to the character that Uma Thurman so desperately wanted to kill a few years ago. Paul Sorvino has a small, meaningless cameo that was put there more for the poster credit than the acting ability.There are many other things you could be doing than watching "Last Hour". If you're desperate for some dumb DTV fun then I suggest "Hardwired", with also failed stars Cuba Gooding Jr. and Val Kilmer. At least I understood that one.

It's like Smokin' Aces meets Crash meets Usual Suspects with a twist. It starts out not half bad but then it just becomes awful. The script is so corny, boring, unimaginative, it made my head hurt. The action wasn't too bad, it just needed something more. This whole movie needs an overhaul, because it could be a really really good movie. The script just absolutely killed everything. It's like a 6 year old wrote it. The action wasn't polished but it kept you interested until the dialogue kicked in. I am still mad at the fact that somebody put this out as a final version. Do they not have editors or somebody to critique it before final print? This was a waste of money and a good idea.

Having watched some of David Carradines's previous movies and not to mention the 1970's TV series, "Kung Fu," which, was suppose to have starred the late Bruce Lee, I must say that I was very surprised to his just not his name but also that of DMX. What on earth were these two thinking when signing on the dotted lines for this movie? Four men and a woman get a letter, signed by their father, three years after he has died and they meet at a bunker in China. It starts with action as all five of them are surrounded and then we get swept into the past. But the whole thing drags on and on.This stars DMX, Michael Madsen, Pascal Caubet, Bettina Antoni, David Carradine and Monica Cruz.Yes! The action is good but story line drags on and on and by the time the whole link is revealed, be aware, you may have just fallen asleep.Conclusion: Extremely poor.

There is no plot. The movie can't tell if its a action film or a suspense film.The Acting isn't very good. Everyone just likes to drop the F-Bomb.I finally figured out what was happening in the movie after about 1 hour of randomness, figured out isn't the right term, but could follow the storyline... not that there was one. The whole movie cuts from scene to scene and has no cohesion. And in the middle of scenes the movie just cuts to a random shot of something. They even say "This is not a movie" when the two cops argue. I couldn't agree more, this isn't a movie its a waste of cinematic film and money. Nothing good happened in this film, except when the credits rolled and I left. Although I did enjoy the scene where one guy slapped a blood pack on his throat, it was very easy to see, pretty bad FX. Instead of calling the movie Last Hour it should be called, Last 5 Minutes, thats all you'll need to watch to understand the movie since nothing important happens except in the last 5 minutes.
