Night Watch
Published Monday, September 26, 2005 by The Movie Club | E-mail this post
This was my choice of a midnight movie when I am left with no choice. Every cinema was showing the Myth. Frankly speaking, I did not know what to expect.
Oh, it was in English. No, it was Russian. There were warriors. There were bats. Battles between the light and dark – it's about vampires.
It was a fresh change from all the Hollywood stuff I have been watching. Highly experimental, rasping, and bewildering. (What are you trying to prove??) I felt I was involved in the director's indulgent game at times, while there were moments of anticipation and excitement.
Night Watch was Russia's Number one blockbuster. I admire the production and editing effects. I know what they are getting at, but the grip was missing. Perhaps I should wait for parts 2 and 3 (It's a trilogy with "Day Watch" and "Dusk Watch") or the Hollywood remark.
