Mike McCoy’s a seasoned, successful hitman, but in his old age, violent memories of his career catch up with him, threatening his soul’s worth. With one last mission, Mike follows the sinister protocol: laying low in a rundown motel, never leaving the house without his shades, and always carrying a gun. But this time, the job becomes near impossible as nightmares steal his sleep and a stranger at a local café offers a better way to live.
Rachel shows Mike a hope in Jesus, the kind of hope that promises a beautiful future and removes the stains of the past. As time closes in on the “zero hour”, the last second to finish his murderous mission, Mike must decide who he is.
While Christ’s redemption remains a theme, screentime is more devoted to intense, uncomfortable scenes that include gun practice, prostitution, and shooting drugs. Due to these heavy elements that aren’t quite as balanced with forgiveness and truth, Zero Hour is Not Dove-approved.
The Dove Take
Zero Hour reveals the internal struggles of a hitman who wrestles the demons of drug abuse and sex addiction to numb the results of his career—but a stranger-turned-friend shows him a new life in Jesus, forcing the hitman to choose who he is.
