is a White Russian a further five weeks yeah okay
22 said
what what the flick everybody no matter the this is a large order Ali we're here
to talk about
hours yes I it is not a penny not the final film
that Paul Walker made but one that is last in the first film to be released
since his tragic death
are in a recent car accident I he stars as a man whose wife has just given birth
are the baby lives the wife dies and
ol Hurricane Katrina is hitting and the baby is on a respirator that needs to
be a plugin for 48 hours but the power is out and the water is rising and
things get messy take a look this is been a little
Dar es de la Renta pre-fall this is given out for help
Street wedding
have been a lady is affordable swish manager are going to come
didn't
maybe got a bad battery near dead were North
for somebody please
three minutes you know I gotta say I I think it's
its easy disorder want to get to hyperbolic about this given the timing
is who is really is
but I I was really impressed with Paul Walker's performance here
you know he's he this is the kind of movie you make when you're a movie star
and you want to be an actor
right you know and and I think he's in every see
yeah this movie often by himself of mostly by some guy who spends
seventy-five percent of the time talk to the baby or a dog
a not and he really solve it then
and yes it is tempting it's tough right because we've just lost him everything
on my county so young
and it's hard to not look at this be like who are you
he was really good at this right pre-cut is
he's pretty yeah I I was impressed by how people that often and I'm
I'm just so you know the fact that he wanted to do it at all like the this is
clearly
unexercised to sort of stretch himself on screen and
he really kinda hits all the bases you know there are a few flashbacks with
Genesis Rodriguez who plays his late wife and I like how that
was structured to the movie why I like that you
%um get dumped right into the story and then you have like his kinda memories
and as he's dozing off
right but his thoughts about how he got together with her dad it all works
I i think that the stories got a few problems at
I think it does some you know a different take some missteps and
you I'm not really sure why I would how I would buy that character ends up being
as
competent is he is a I you know he does some stuff that
seems to I I don't know that comes outta left field but you don't get no
backstory for his care
yeah I me I do understand that in the moment obviously you're gonna do
everything possible to play it live your
infantile but yeah it does get a little almost superhero a good times
%uh I was saying I said my review that if this were
a 50-minute episode like an anthology series that would be a classic European
is it the whole ticking clock thing is so great in and the the way the things
he piling up
but I Eric highs are urged that very much
yeah member the hope for a horror arm the
he he wrote the remake so the thing and I were no street and final destination 5
his directorial debut kinda overdoes it after a while like there's not
a knock tube make this go to full 90 minutes 0 a
there's a little too cute to me now things but that said
um it's worth seeing for for Walker certainly
I and i think that it's some you know it
it's kind of a reminder that this guy had sort of more colors as payback said
that you know we
we won't know about and one other thing I liked about this movie is that
in avoids it could have upped the stakes very dramatically and made things
you know really been over the top and it stays small
sure it stays at about the store it stays focused online
Paul Walker trying to keep the ventilator powered right and
that's it had that in turn up and that's about it
and its you know the limits of what he has to do in his frustration in his
despair
there and all the motion to go through Cooper absolutely South
and I think that you know row like this where your on-screen all the time
is a tough sell and I think you know it a movie like this could have been
sorta exploitative love Katrina in the same way we've seen a lot of the
post-9/11 movies getting the kind ever
squeaky area I think it effectively uses the
the disaster and although horrible shit that went down as a backdrop without
right being gross about it you know um and and you know we have a nose
so many movies get made in Louisiana now for the tax credit this one at least has
a very good reason to be there and and
you know if they make yeah I mean I i'm said no they do make a lot to use the
locations with almost all
in this hospital room I but yeah it's you know I
it's a it's a cool little B-movie premise that that it that it owns and
goes with and now and then you add to it that's one of his better performances
that then adjust you know sort of
I think makes his loss to all the all the satyr absolutely so final score
I would give it up 6.8 yeah I think about six-and-a-half
I'm right there with you yep so that's our average is the 6.7
now we're heading on the train we're only forty percent we only have like 15
reviews but most people with a complainer
they're complaining about the story really does not hold it together so I I
do get that criticism
but I it was inadvertently don't make me enjoy the yeah I think ultimately come
see I mean I felt it moving by the FAA guy I found it emotionally involving
your beautiful get thing invested in the counselors areas are you know
alright thanks
