What to Know

Critics Consensus

Writer-director Zak Hilditch's thought-provoking screenplay -- and a stellar performance from young Angourie Rice -- make These Final Hours worth watching, even if its end-of-the-world premise is overly familiar.

Wendy Ide Observer (UK) 05/08/2016
3/5
Although the film lacks the bravura of Von Trier's Melancholia or the heart and humour of Don McKellar's Last Night, it does have a propulsive energy and a satisfying arc of redemption. Go to Full Review

As low-budget Ozploitation goes, it's snappy and effective. Go to Full Review
Robert Bell Exclaim! 01/30/2023
A more aggressive, candid look at the human condition, dropping a bit of the idealism and metaphysical musings of its Canadian counterpart. Go to Full Review

Phillips gives his all in a display that showcases a multitude of emotions, and they all are stellar in appearance - he's come a long way from Wolf Creek and is poised to make a huge mark in the business shortly... Go to Full Review

moonstone T @RT08235812 2h It's an emotionally difficult, brutal, but also very sensitive film about what really matters when time is running out. See more Grant G @GGonMovies May 7 Slow and transparent. Decent performances but everything is very predictable. See more Harsh C @H_A_R_S_H 03/25/2024 Slow and humourless story about a guy who struggles with basic human emotions See more amy W @RT44038520 03/31/2023 Just brilliant, amazing performances by the cast and the kind of film that you won't forgot. It make me cry!! See more Shae W @RT55355391 01/15/2023 Excellent, smart and entertaining See more 07/01/2022 I have a bit of a penchant for apocalyptic nihilistic movies and after a recommendation I would put this up there with Miracle Mile and The Quiet Earth as a great low budget movie. The premise is a little different and it shares elements of the odyssey. I will certainly be watching it again. See more Read all reviews
