Day Watch
by bootlegga on Thu May 03, 2007 12:36 pm
Just for BlueNose;
I didn't see Night Watch when it was out about a year ago, but it was hugely successful in Russia, smashing box office records there. The low-cost production didn't do as well in North America though. I do like the premise a lot and one of these days I will rent it (and review it). Day Watch will be released in North America July 1st by Fox Searchlight.

Featuring the cinematic vision of cutting-edge Director/Writer Timur Bekmambetov, "Day Watch (Dnevnoi Dozor)" is the second installment of a trilogy based on the best-selling sci-fi novels of Sergei Lukyanenko entitled "Night Watch," "Day Watch" and "Dusk Watch." A dazzling mix of state-of-the-art visual effects, amazing action sequences, and nail-biting horror, when "Night Watch (Nochnoi Dozor)" was released in its native Russia in July 2004, it became an instant smash hit breaking all film gross records in post-Soviet history. Set in contemporary Moscow, "Day Watch (Dnevnoi Dozor)" revolves around the conflict and balance maintained between the forces of light and darkness -- the result of a medieval truce between the opposing sides.

Saw Night Watch and enjoyed it quite a bit. I bought the Taiwanese copyrighted DVD. I'm looking forward to the next installment
If I want your opinion, I'll read your entrails.

The difference between a smart man and a wise man is that a smart man knows what to say, a wise man knows whether or not to say it....
The number of lies I tell will drastically decline once my wife stops asking so many questions.

I watched Night Watch, and I thought it was alright. It was a little strange at times, and the general style was not something I was used to in action movies.
I'm hoping Night Watch will be Matrix impressive... it looked that way from the trailer.
