This is mostly entertaining ridiculousness, threaded together by the reliable Hawke ...

Plotted like a Crank sequel and has dialogue that sounds like it was written by a teenage boy.

Rated: 1/4

There's some reasonably ambitious choreography to a lot of the physicality and camerawork, and until it devolves into testosterone-drenched, operatic silliness, the mix of bullets, blood and banter is dumb fun.

The Sun Daily (Malaysia)

With high speed chases, explosions and one head-scratching scene where the local militia bring knives to a gun-fight, this movie will appeal to those who like non-stop action.

I was never surprised by anything that occurred in 24 Hours to Live but I was never bored as Ethan Hawke's weathered hero amasses a rather large and blood-soaked body count.

Rated: 3/5

An intriguing concept that Ethan Hawke pulled off decently with palpable weighing underlying the stakes to hook our engagement through the last hour, leaving most of the action a violent mess and failing to obscure a questionable screenplay. (B-)

Ethan Hawke is great as always, but the movie itself is serviceable background entertainment and not much else.

Filme: Um Dia para Viver Assistido: 7-12-24 Elenco: @ethanhawke Xu Qing, Paul Anderson, @liamcunningham1 Modelo: #ação #mercenarios Duração: 1h 33m Ano: 2017 Minha opinião: Um filme que já tem um roteiro conhecido e seguiu direito a receita, mas nada fora do comum. Mas temos aqui Ethan e Xu Qing como protagonistas. Hoje em dia o mercado chinês sozinho consegue colocar filmes nos mais vistos e rentosos do cinema, mas como ele são seletivos nos filme que passaram no país, por isso vários filmes tem colocado atores chineses para que se abra o mercado e também produtoras chinesas. E aqui acredito que seja um deles. Temos um mercenário Travis (Etahn) que trabalha para uma empresa que tem seus segredos e ações sendo reveladas e assim é enviado Travis para descobrir o local do interrogatório e eliminar. Mas o plano da errado e ele é morto por Lin (Xu) agente da Interpol. Mas é revivido através de um procedimento que lhe dará 24 hs de vida. Mas quando ele entrega a informação que a agência precisa mandam elimina-lo, mas ele foge e agora ele vai usar este tempo para denunciar a agência e salvar Lin e seu filho. Com muita ação o filme se desenrola, ele contra um exército de mercenários, sai matando todos até chegar no algós e seu parceiro, que ele descobre que eliminou sua família por ordem da agência. E quando seu tempo acaba, o filme termina com ele revivendo. Roteiro e enredo já conhecidos. Vale apena assistir? Sim Nota: 6,5

Watched on Prime. Seven years after the fact. Entertaining and the characters were able to evoke levels of sympathy and anger. Hard to not like Ethan Hawke.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Similar to D.O.A., with assassins, but results as a messy action film lacking focus and moving too quickly for a story as broad in scale as this was.

Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars
