Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
An urgent yet strangely simple and humanistic doomsday scenario.
The low-budget Australian apocalyptic drama has such a terrific start - an adrenaline rush of panic and dread as a huge asteroid colliding with the Earth sends a wall of fire around the planet. It's a shame the movie peters out about halfway through.
Incoherent and pointless as it is, These Final Hours moves with commendable swiftness.
Despite its strong sense of place and a solid central performance from Nathan Phillips, Zak Hilditch's film is too blighted by the deja vu factor to stand out from the apocalyptic pack.
