night Watch WTF?

[urgeok]

Night Watch isnt groundbreaking or anywhere near the best horror film to have ever come out - but it's solid and enjoyable... well, it was for me.

when i heard about this 'russian' horror flick i expected something shoddy and uneven .. sort of like the cinematic version of a Lada.

instead i found it to be stylish and competent .. the acting as well as the direction and cinematography.

it had an interesting story and overall i thought it was a fun movie that exceeded my expectations.


but as far as being hard to understand ..... ?

whats to understand ... good guys vs bad guys.

yeah ..

Dan Brown's a shit writer - no arguements from me.

1,000,000 subway riders CAN be wrong.

Individual choices does differ from person to person. Maybe you felt towards Nightwatch what I felt towards Casablanca. I dont blame you one bit.

But for me, someone who has been starved of good horror movies for a long while, NightWatch came as a real surprise. Trust the russians to follow the japs in the novelty of horror movie making, and they havent disappointed at all. Its the great old premise, packed and rejuvenated into a brand new and shining armour. The plot, the pace and the direction create some really great atmosphere. Once one is immersed, its a pacy, enjoyable flick.

finally watched "night watch" last night... i really enjoyed it. i felt the tension b/tw light and dark. i also like how the line b/tw good and evil was skewed. nice twist at the end, sets up for the next installment. overall: 7.5-10.


*flip the disk over to watch the original version w/ subtitles b/c the dubbed side is a bit awkward.
