Anton Bitel Sight & Sound the extraterrestrials themselves are never seen, leaving Joalland to focus instead on the humans below, caught in their own uncivil clash of hope and despair, enlightenment and bestiality. Jun 3, 2015 Full Review Read all reviews

Jack S The Quiet Hour appears to be about alien invaders who pause their Earth surveillance patrols for just 2 hours per day, conveniently freeing survivors from observation during that time. However, inconceivably, the script never exploits this idea to generate suspense. So, because the invaders perform no active part whatsoever in this otherwise forgettable film’s action, their presence, as well as this entire project, is completely pointless. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 08/14/24 Full Review Logan D After earth was invaded by alien machines that harvest its resources, humans strive to exist, which is hindered by the fact they can only go outside for 2 hours or the machines will detect them. Sarah and her blind brother are wondering where their father is when a soldier invades their house. The aliens are mainly used to place the charcters in a situation they normally wouldn't be. The director focuses on the emotional responses to the bleak situation and I'd say their responses are very British. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/27/24 Full Review mattias h Good, slow paced drama between humans trying to survive while Earth is being exploited by aliens Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Quote......is anybody there ! Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review keith w An intelligent, lean, well produced, thoughtful, dystopian nightmare, movie and all the better for it. That this above average movie has not had a more fuller viewing, is surprising, but predictable when other more inferior movies are benefitting from misplaced marketing budgets! Good acting and a refreshingly believable script, makes this film more watchable than most. The insanity that humanity exhibits during times of extreme conditions and hardship, is amply manifested in this violent piece. Highly recommended. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Bleak low budget post apocalyptic film. It's well acted and tense. I liked it, but then I like bleak post apocalyptic films.
