BEST damn action movies PERIOD December 15, 2007 11 out of 13 found this review helpful
I saw both movies in the series - and I can only say whoa; Ive send plenty of us action movies - but this movie made them all look like by third graders. The special effects are just mind-boggling. The story really takes wild twists and turns - you have no clue what to except next (compare that to cookie-cutter hollywood plots). I guess some people might say that story is hard to follow because - i liked - but even if - the end of the movie makes it all worth it. Character acting makes the scenes feel creepingly real - as they are very melodramatic moments from real life. Even if you are not usually into vampires & witches - still watch this movie - as the movie will quickly succumb with you in variety of different cinematographic elements (too bad its not availalble on blu-ray).
BEST damn action movies PERIOD
A Steal of a Deal December 26, 2007 10 out of 11 found this review helpful
This DVD set includes both the brilliant urban fantasy NIGHT WATCH as well as the more toned down DAY WATCH.
NIGHT WATCH follows Anton Gorodetsky (Konstantin Khabensky) as he discovers he isn't a normal human and is an Other with magical powers. Anton chooses to join the forces of Light and spends his time hunting vampires, trying to remove a witch's curse, and stop the end of the world from happening.
DAY WATCH continues the story begun in NIGHT WATCH. It takes place two years later and deals more with the internal struggles of Anton as he struggles with the demons of his past while continuing to do the right thing. In the meantime, someone has framed Anton for the murders of Dark Ones. Anton finds himself on the run while trying to locate the mysterious Chalk of Fate that could enable him to reverse the wrong decisions of his life.
NIGHT WATCH and DAY WATCH form the first two films of a planned trilogy and owning them together in one set for the price of one film is a great bargain. Of course, you might just want to wait a few years until after the third film of the series, TWILIGHT WATCH is out and then just get all three.
True SCIFI fans! December 7, 2007 9 out of 10 found this review helpful
Both of these movies are like nothing you can expect. The director has taken the viewer on a cinematic adventure through his mind. Watch both movies in order and I promise you will not be disappointed.
No russian version March 9, 2008 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
Very good movies. Full of effect and nice script. The only bad thing is that there is no Russian language in the first DVD. So, it's a very good choice for those who like action/fiction/with-cool-effects movies.
Pretty good February 8, 2008 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
As long as you go into watching these movies understanding they bear little resemblance to the fantastic series of books, you'll enjoy them. Daywatch is the better of the two films.
If they ever make a "Hollywood" version and actually follow the books more accurately. Here's who I picture in some of the parts:
Anton Gorodetsky-- Robert Carlyle (he's the only one that can play the part!)
Gesar--Ed Harris
Zabulon--Terry O'Quinn
Olga--Cate Blanchett
