Night Watch

 

 

Release Year: 2005
Review: Night Watch is the first in the Russian blockbuster vampire trilogy (followed by Day Watch[2007] and Twilight Watch[2009]). The film creates a rich sci-fi world of Light versus Dark. Although it looks beautiful, the film may suffer at times for perhaps being over stylized. The plot and feel had a very Matrix-esque aura about it. I'm not a fan of the vampire thrillers so I had problems with the story, but it is a solid film which I would feel comfortable recommended to someone who was a fan of the genre. It certainly is better than most of the recent vampire flicks that have come out State side in recent memory and its unfortunate its been over looked by so many.
Rating: 3/5
