Review of Fright Night (2011) by Jimster Jimmy I — 17 Dec 2012

I kind of enjoyed it, but I think I expected more from it. "Fright Night" is a horror comedy movie that will make you smile and jump over the edge of your seat a couple of times here and there -- it's not bad, but it doesn't get to a steady point either. This movie is just there: there are a couple of farily cool scenes, there's a beginning and a ending. It's not badly written, but I didn't find a reason to start laughing out loud or get terribly scared -- and the plot wasn't that much entertaining -- so I'm not sure what was the purpose of the movie: just be?

Now I'm looking forward to see the original one. But I'd still recommend this "Fright Night". It's a different movie about vampires. There's a little bit of Vegas in it. And Colin Farrell as a vampire was pretty hilarious, and that's kind of a good enough reason to watch this movie, isn't it?
