Comments about ‘No real value to be found in violent 'Eleventh Hour'’

Don't underestimate what the reviewer wrote about the shaky camera. The shakiness, closeness, and fast cutting of The Eleventh Hour wasn't like Bourne Ultimatum's action scenes, it was more like the camera was dropped into the spin cycle of a transparent washing machine.

Several times I had to look away to keep from throwing up, and noticed a lot of others looking away as well.

That OVERDONE-NESS of the film maker was evident all over the film. The plot was so ludicrous at points, even for an action movie, that the audience laughed many times at parts that weren't meant to be laughed at. The violence and gore was over the top and was laughed at at times as well.

On the positive side, it was great to see an LDS Film try to do something different and explore a new genre.

Most of the films I saw at the LDS Film Festival made me believe LDS films are getting better. However, The Eleventh Hour is an exception. This was not a good film.

With that stable of high quality performers, how can this movie not be a super star success? An entry into an LDS film festival certainly should be about the faith not garbage made by members of the faith.
Course on the other hand all the leading makers of LDS films, have left the faith, but is this all we have left?, a clown who makes a film solely for SPIKE TV?
Who watches SPIKE TV?. Now if it were Golden Spike TV.

Terrible film. Utterly terrible. Having Matthew Reese star as an action hero was an interesting move and something I wanted to see. I disliked his acting in "Beauty and the Beast: A Latter-Day Tale", but his performance in "Tears of a King" (also shown at the LDS film festival) was very heartfelt. I was quite excited to see him play a hero.

I have never watched a film where you despised the hero so much. It was watching a lesser of two evils film. The "bad" guys were worse people than the hero, but he wasn't too great of a person.

The story was off-the-wall and would have better fit a parody of the genre than a competing entry.

The camera movement was sickening and CONSTANTLY moving. Very poor cinematography.

Just an overall bad movie that I would suggest anyone stay away from.

I don't know what these guys are talking about. I found it to be a very entertaining movie. Shaky cam? Yes, but it didn't bother me. Good acting, good action. But hey, I watch some SPIKE TV and enjoy it.

Mr. SJ Bobkins... calling the film maker a clown just because you don't like his movie is pretty low. Probably not a very good example for one of the leaders of an Elders quorum to be calling names.

The only way a person could like this movie is if they knew some of the people who helped make it, or if they frequently watch violent, R-rated movies and play violent video games and are desensitized to what normal, decent people find repulsive.

This movie had a bad script, no plot, horrendous cinematography, cliche' music, was over acted, poorly directed, and was just plain juvenile.

At the festival, the film maker told the audience that the original script had "making out" scenes that the lead actress refused to do, so they cut the scenes from the script.

The guy was so clueless, he held the story up so we all could applaud the actress for sticking to her values, and couldn't seem to see that the bad guy pressuring her to compromise her values was HIM!

If this film finds legs in the LDS market, it will be a very sad commentary on the standards of Latter-day Saints.

This movie was a good way to spend an hour and a half. It kept me entertained. Sure it had some issues but the acting was convincing enough, the plot was a little weak but it flowed. All in all, I enjoyed the movie.
