Review of Day Watch (2006) by Michael G — 19 Sep 2009

There was a point around the beginning of Day Watch where I thought it might actually be better than its predecessor, Night Watch. The impressive but over-the-top scene with the car barrel-assing along the front of that hotel, the interestingly upgraded special effects and the foxy, raven-coiffed Alicia all had me open-minded and ready to enjoy it.

Then that droning, monotonous and boring story kicked it. I honestly feel that this movie as an hour too long and if the effects weren't so good I'd say it should be used as torture. Believe it or not, a second viewing makes Day Watch even more nonsensical and painful to watch.
