The follow up film to Night Watch, the second of a trilogy I believe.
See what you think. I think its giong to be great, Night Watch was incredibly entertaining.

eh, nightwatch was disappointing, the best part of the movie was the subtitles.

I thought this was better than Night Watch, but it was still odd in some parts. What was the real deal with the foil ball? 6/22/2007 12:03:30 PM |

It was pretty good. The ending was a bit strange and I wonder how they third one is going to take off from there. 6/22/2007 3:04:24 PM |

i guess i'm the only one who liked nightwatch more than this one.
I still liked Daywatch, but not nearly as much.
****SPOILER?****
I mean, you can see this in the trailer, but is it just me or was the part where the mazda drives on the side of the building just retarded. I mean, I was sick to my stomache when I watched it in Ultraviolet, one of the worst films ever. 6/24/2007 10:47:27 PM |

Quote : | "Rated R for violence, awesome Russian violence.
Daywatch is a Russian mixture of The Matrix, Underworld, and Garfield (this is one of my normal “pick which one doesn’t belong” hooks). With a monster cast of Konstantin Khabensky, Maria Poroshina II, Dmitry Martynov, Galina Tyunina, and Vladimir Menshov this is sure to be a blockbuster! I’m sure everyone knows all those people…right? Simply put, this movie is awesome. I was a little more warmed up to it than Thor, but it was extremely entertaining. The story revolves around the conflict between the Nightwatch and the Daywatch who toe the line to police each other. You probably will want to watch Nightwatch before seeing this movie because the 2 minute refresher at the beginning doesn’t quite bring everything back together.
This movie has the best use of subtitles I have ever seen. It’s really awesome to keep up with the story and see the subtle effects mixed into the subtitles (the words are so close together I had to use subtle with subtitles). If you can let your mind go and not expect a truly realistic story, you will enjoy this movie. Some of the effects are very far-fetched, although equally incredible to watch. It’s been a while since I was as entertained in an action movie as this one and the use of subtitles really keeps your attention drawn to each well crafted scene.
Daywatch has the perfect blend of action, humor, and style that made it very appealing to me. I hope that Thor’s movie experience at Galaxy of sitting in a warm piece of chewed Winterfresh didn’t influence his movie experience too much because it would be a shame to miss out on this movie experience. If you can handle subtitles and were pulled into movies like Pan’s Labyrinth or Brotherhood of the Wolf, you can expect a very fun movie experience. It’s a great Matrix-ish vampire movie without cheesy acting from Keanu. Definitely Worth Watching in my book. " |
