American Night

There's definitely alot going on with this film both visually and aesthetically. The start was a bit slow, but overall the film definitely grabbed my attention and is worth seeing it once.

Unconventional plot, nice setting, good acting. Two hours well spent, definitely.

I liked the films action sequences, but had a harder time keeping up with the unconventional plot and time jumps.

Actually it's a nice action film with also a good sparkle of drama. It might be a little confusing at the beginning but you'll figure everything out as the movie goes on. Shoutout to the cast, Jonathan Rhys Meyers in particular and Emile Hirsch, who plays a quite convincing villain and properly comes out at the end in all of his madness.

I have to admit, the actors present in this movie surprised me by their presence. I did not expect to see so many people in this that I would recognize. Some things work better with them than other I reckon. Be water my friend - I think the delivery of this works. The blindfold part ... barely. You do question the motive of the character - even though I reckon you can explain everything ... still it does not work as good as the movie thinks it does.

That being said, just the fact that you have people who know how to act helps elevate the movie to a bigger level than maybe the script would have been worth without them. The action is well choreographed. Emile Hirsch relishes in being the bad guy too ... a bit of mayhem ... and a bit of love of b movies should be there in yourself to begin with.
