The Night Comes for Us (2018)

6/10

Oh god why!?

Date Watched: 1 June 2023

This was very gory. I think there was some good fight choreography, but I can’t be sure because I closed my eyes for half of every fight scene. Lots of blades and tools around. I think there should be blood in a violent movie, but this was horror movie gore. That’s not my thing.

Despite that, and despite some pacing issues, I was enjoying the film. There were some compelling characters, the story was interesting, and the fighting i did see was good. But then…the filmmakers just..forgot about the plot? I guess we say they lost the plot. They introduced some inexplicable characters, they stopped telling a story and just went on spree of over the top draged out fight scenes until they ran out of time and money I guess.
