Review of Day Watch (2006) by Michael A — 07 Dec 2012

''I shall control the fate of the world...''.

[gets stabbed from behind].

''But you can't even control your own fate.''.

A man who serves in the war between the forces of Light and Dark comes into possession of a device that can restore life to Moscow, which was nearly destroyed by an apocalyptic event.

Konstantin Khabensky: Anton.

Mariya Poroshina: Svetlana.

I thought very highly of Night Watch and I wasn't disappointed in this sequel, but I'd say despite the HIGHLY imaginative artistic effects it's a bit more confusing and complex to it's predecessor.

I think I need to watch it again as there is alot to take in and ultimately you need to have seen the first to make heads or tails of it.

Day Watch is a blend of Matrix and Blade Runner shaken up in a Russian blended mesh that oozes style and intelligence.

I have to mention the visuals are excellent and amazing to see the other side, the flip side of the coin focusing on the bad, The Day Watch.

It's got one of those endings that concludes the epic.

An artistic fantasy adult mini-Masterpiece, Day Watch delivers.
