I'm sorry. I love foreign movies and I really liked Night Watch. But this movie sucked ass. It became a high priced sequal. It was paced horribly. It easily could have cut at least 30 minutes off the run time. Parts of this movie made absolutely no sense. As they are all getting killed in the last scene in a penthouse party, they are still dancing instead of running. It kept setting up confrontations that never happened. The scene where Moscow is being destroyed was an exact copy of the destruction scenes in Independance Day and the Day After Tomorrow. This could have been done so much better. Maybe the first one had my expectations set too high for the sequal, but like American movies it stretched the original too far and tried to rely on special effects to carry the movie. It way didn't do it. Let's hope Dusk Watch can get back to the tone and feel of the original.
