1. • • The Desperate Hour proves woefully misguided in its attempts to merge solemnity with suspense while tackling timely subject matter, making for a film that doesn't quite know who it's for or what story it wants to tell.

   Is 'the desperate hour' a thriller?

   • The film only opens up at all at the very end, and even then, just barely. Watts is in every second of the film. It’s a testament to the screenplay’s tight structure and to Watts’ peerless ability to hold the frame that The Desperate Hour works at all as a thriller.
