BRizz 2 12 Hour Shift (2020) Review 12 Hour Shift was marketed to me like it was going to be some kind of horror-thriller, but what I got felt more like a messy, awkward dark comedy that didn’t quite know what it wanted to be. Angela Bettis takes the lead role, but I honestly think she was miscast. Her performance is so awkward that instead of adding tension or grit, it just makes the whole thing feel off-kilter—in the wrong way. The movie centers around a corrupt nurse involved in an illegal organ trade, and while that premise could have been tense, suspenseful, and disturbing, it ends up feeling slow, muddled, and directionless. The pacing drags. The tone jumps all over the place. The script feels like it was written without a clear ending in mind, and instead of tightening it up, they just shot it anyway. For something with such a grim setup, you’d expect it to build up into something intense or shocking. But it never does. Instead, you’re stuck in this weird, meandering limbo where scenes feel disconnected, and the stakes never actually feel high. By the halfway point, I was just ready for it to be over. If the intention was to make an uncomfortable, offbeat horror-comedy, it didn’t land. If the goal was a tense, gritty thriller, it missed that target too. In the end, 12 Hour Shift is less about suspense and more about wondering how something with such a promising concept ended up feeling so aimless.

There were times when I enjoyed this movie and decided to up my review to two stars, but for the most part I was kind of confused as to where the movie was going to go next. The crescendo of the last 30 minutes of the movie made it worth the watch, but it took a bit to get there.

Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/29/24 Full Review Max S I transitioned from "what the hell am I watching" to "this s*** is hilarious" . Each scene being more over the top than the last and everything perfectly cascading into this insane night with insane people working at some god forsaken hospital definitely got some laughs out of me. The movie is really funny (in a dark way) which works if you're into that kind of humor. Wayyy better than I thought it would be...
