Day Watch
2006 Dir: Timur Bekmambetov
Stars:
IMDB
Before the film: This is the sequel to “Night Watch” and is the second in a trilogy of films based on a trilogy of books. The first film was ok, although I only saw it on the small screen.
This long film dragged only very briefly. While you could watch this without seeing ‘Night Watch’ it would be better to see ‘Night Watch’ first. The truce between good and evil holds, but for how long, the bad guys want it to end. Some great effects and action combined with a better understanding of the world it is set in (that of vampires and other people with supernatural powers) made this a more enjoyable film than ‘Night Watch’.
Why See It? To see some non-Hollywood Sci Fi/Fantasy.
