It is an incredible movie. I was aware from the outset that it would be subtitled and I do not mind this.
Some of the best movies (film) I’ve seen have been (ie, House of Flying Daggers, Hero, Tsotsi, Apocalypto), and it seems to stop noticing them after a while. And in this movie are much more into account in its place.
The camera work is excellent and the angles change so often that leaves you reeling - the game fast paced and sometimes confusing film. Scenes of change between what can be seen by mortals, and what can be seen by others, and each of these scenes have been shot hundreds of times to catch all the angles that combine to give the final result.
CGI is also impressive, especially considering they are working with a budget that Hollywood would laugh. Night Watch is completely fresh and original and unlike anything I’ve seen before.
He never takes himself too seriously and combines a light humor with an air of dark menace. Khabensky I’ve heard described as the Russian Peter Jackson could not agree more.
This film is a masterpiece and I feel that the trilogy that happen to be a work of genius compared to another famous “trilogy”. I can not recommend this film enough. I saw this movie again and again and can not wait til the day section, was published in the UK.
