The film “24 Hours for Life” (2017) was released on television quite recently and immediately won its audience. The plot of the film is not new, but as a breath of fresh air he appeared to the delight of a lover of a good thriller. The main highlight of the action movie is the participation of the famous and very talented actor Ethan Hawke. Hawke is known for such bright film masterpieces as “Taking Lives”, where he appeared in tandem with the beautiful Angelina Jolie, the incredible and swirling thriller “Time Patrol”, where he plays with an interesting actress Sarah Snook.
On the film "24 hours for a living," moviegoers write positive reviews. But there are supporters of a negative point of view.
Plot
The plot of the film "24 Hours for Life" (2017) begins with the fact that the former hired agent of the secret organization Travis Conrad only does what he spends his life with a bottle or two of fortified drinks. But the fact is that just a year ago, his wife and child died, and this was a great shock to the man. Once a professional in his field, not for a moment doubting his decisions, Travis is now completely depressed and discouraged. But soon everything is changing.
Conrad finds his former partner, offering a very lucrative business. Travis in every possible way refuses, but in the end, what else should he do, he agrees to the deal. His task is to find and kill one valuable witness who accidentally ended up at the wrong time and in the wrong place. The former boss of the agency - Liam Cunningham - really needs this person, because the witness is going to testify against him, and then big business will come to an end.
In the photo there is a fragment of the film "24 hours for life." The actors are incredibly talented and charming - Ethan Khoyuk and Xu Qing.
In the end, Travis goes on the trail of Keith Zera, the same witness, but he is hindered by intelligence agent Lin, who is ready to do her job at the cost of her life. Its purpose is to deliver the “object” to its destination intact. And after one of the hassles with Travis, Lin kills him. But from that moment on, the story is just beginning.
Who starred
As mentioned above, the film "24 hours for life" reviews are mostly positive. Ethan Hawke did an excellent job with his role. Playing his character, he conveyed a lot of emotions to the audience - weakness and depression after the death of his family, professionalism and firmness in fights with enemies, slight insanity after entering a secret drug and strength of character after realizing that there was very little left to live.
Perhaps without this actor the project would have turned out not so successful. And you can safely call it successful, because this is evidenced by the positive reviews about the film "24 hours for a living."
Xu Qing, reincarnated as a special services agent Lin, who so zealously protects the witness, also played a bright role. The role of Travis's partner - Jim Morrow, was played by the English actor Paul Anderson, who was widely known for such films as Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows, Survivor, Legend. The character of the villain and the head of the secret organization - the bad man of Wetzler, went to Liam Cunningham, who is known for the acclaimed film project "Game of Thrones."
The legendary Rutger Hauer also took part in the film “24 Hours for Life,” reviews of which are below. The actor played a small but significant role of Frank, who in the story is the father-in-law of the protagonist.
Movie Reviews
As noted earlier, reviews of the film "24 hours for life" are almost all positive.
