Review of Day Watch (2006) by Lexi . — 14 Jun 2009
Excellent Russian movie including vampires, the battle between Light and Dark and superb special effects which seem to have been largely influenced by Matrix.It gets confusing from time to time and switches between the horror, sci-fi, fantasy and action genres too fast leaving you no room for thinking.
Its sci-fi parts are unlike anything I've ever seen, this is extreme sci-fi and not everyone will enjoy it.The only thing that was annoying was music and the fact that if you haven't already read the books it's unlikely that you'll understand much of the movie, but overall it was a pleasant surprise and it seems the Russians have put a lot of effort in it, which makes it a good sequel to Night Watch - creating quite different atmosphere though.
