Why won't my htc 1 m8 windows phone fully reset it self after i do a hard reset

Okay, so I did a hard reset last night to hopefully improve the performance of my phone. I did the reset and put my phone down to watch a movie that was 2 hours long. The phone didn't complete the reset, It kept spinning the gears and the loading bar would get about half way then pause, about 5-10 minutes later the upside down smiling face would appear ":-(" then the phone would turn off. If anyone could help me with this problem that would super nice.
