A narrative mess, with flashy visuals. It almost worked for me.

Amazingly bad. Poor script, weak directing, listless performance.

A reader of the series, I was excited to see this movie. The movie is good, though it does a different take on the books. It only takes one story from the book which is strange because the book is told through the thrre stories. So I left the movie knowing that there was so much more that the movie could have told. But overall, if you're a fan of the book you'll like this movie. Good acting all around.

Generally a decent vampire film that just gets a little carried away towards the end, the thing that is most attractive about Night Watch is it's unique use of subtitles. The subtitled dialogue is an integrated part of the scene, keeping you 'in the moment' of the action. This is an example of a really well subtitled film, and I wish more films would follow in its footsteps. Otherwise, the plot is ok, a little convoluted and, as mentioned, it loses itself in the last act.

Although it's a bit hard to follow the first time through, Night Watch takes an age old tradition (you know, good vs. evil) and updates the story. It moves fast, like the director was aiming at the ADD crowd, but it's enjoyable enough.
