Watch Desperate Hours Online

Hardened criminal Michael Bosworth (Mickey Rourke) escapes from a courthouse jail with a gun slipped to him by his attorney, Nancy Breyers (Kelly Lynch). To avoid a police manhunt, Bosworth chooses a Utah home at random and holds a family hostage, hiding out with his brother (Elias Koteas) and another fugitive (David Morse). The home belongs to Tim Cornell (Anthony Hopkins). He and his wife Nora (Mimi Rogers) are on the verge of a separation, which upsets their two children. Cornell is trying to win back her affection when the violent home invaders come into their lives. Bosworth's attorney acts an innocent victim of her client, but does not fool an FBI agent (Lindsay Crouse) who puts surveillance on her every move. Breyers eventually cuts a deal with the agent to have charges against her reduced by betraying Bosworth and his men. With the house surrounded and his partners dead, Bosworth holds a gun on Nora and is prepared to use it if Cornell interferes with his plans to flee. He is unaware that Cornell has removed the bullets from the weapon. Cornell drags the criminal outside, where Bosworth ignores the FBI's order to surrender and is gunned down.
