ALTERED HOURS

Cinemavixion Review

Bruce Wemple's 'Altered Hours' plunges viewers into a disorienting narrative centered on the perils of tampering with the natural order of time. The film masterfully explores the psychological toll of insomnia, amplified by a black market sleep aid that catapults the protagonist, played with a palpable sense of unease by Ryan Munzert, into a future he is unprepared for. The premise, where a man becomes implicated in a crime he has yet to commit, offers a compelling twist on the thriller genre. Munzert, alongside Briana Pozner and Rick Montgomery Jr., navigates the escalating paranoia and existential dread with commendable performances. While the film delves into complex themes of fate and consequence, its tight pacing and suspenseful plot ensure a gripping cinematic experience that questions the true cost of escaping one's present.
