BLURB

“Ethan Hawke gives an explosive performance as a former special-ops marine turned mercenary who’s given one last shot at redemption in this nonstop action-thriller from the producers of John Wick.”

Now, I’ll be the first to admit that I don’t think of Ethan Hawke as an action film star, but he definitely holds his own in this tale of regret, grief, betrayal, and a quest for redemption.

I’ll have to admit that I was surprised by the ending, and a little disappointed because I don’t think a sequel will be made to wrap up the story in a more emotionally satisfying way.

CAST

Ethan Hawke as Travis Conrad, Paul Anderson as best friend Jim Morrow, Xu Qing as a tough as nails Interpol agent, Liam Cunningham as Wetzler, and Rutger Hauer as Frank in one of his last performances.

Hawke is totally believable as a violent Fixer who is “broken” by the death of his wife and son. Cunningham is the personification of evil corporate businessman—a role he has been typecast in—and Xu Quing, despite her petite size, is believable as the whistle-blower.

Anderson as Travis’s brooding best friend gives a performance that clearly foreshadows something bad, and what can I say about Rutger Hauer, a marvelous actor whose performance in Blade Runner will always be remembered? RIP, Mr. Hauer.

My 2¢

Filmed in Cape Town, South Africa, this movie is well-plotted and well-acted. It’s perfect for an evening of entertainment if action flicks are your thing.

TAKEAWAY TRUTH

I’m happy to recommend this surprisingly good film so hop over to Amazon to find 24 Hours to Live. Two Thumbs Up!
