Silent Night - Und morgen sind wir tot

"Silent Night" is an interesting film. It took me thirty minutes into the film to figure out what is going on. The plot is interesting, but I did see the ending coming. It nice to see so many big name actors and actresses.

I'm not really sure this film knows what it wants to be. If you want to watch a good film about adults and children facing the end check out 'These Final Hours'. If you want to watch a black comedy about the end of the world try Dr Strangelove. There is a lot of talent on screen but much of the script is nonsense and the characters are both sympathetic and unlikeable - but not in a good way. Roman Griffin Davis was pretty good, but the script was obviously distorted to feature everything he says and does. Nothing felt natural and most of the character's motivations remain a mystery. By the end you don't care how it ends.

Never has a film been so heartwarming, heartbreaking and horrifying. SILENT NIGHT is humanity at its very best in the face of its worst fears with laughter, tears and a poignant reminder of why life is worth living at all before we meet our inevidable ends.

This movie should not have been advertised as a horror comedy. It is far from it. This movie was very good in my opinion, definitely worth a watch. This was a whole rollercoaster of a movie. Definitely does not deserve all the negative reviews just because it wasn't what everyone expected.

Check your "holiday spirit" at the door and be ready for a full on pitchblack snark fest instead of the usual holiday hokiness.

I had forgotten the premise after skimming some previews a few weeks back online, so almost felt like a blind watch, until the very dark paradigm switch happens with the story arch.

I just so happen to appreciate the well acted and directed film and its daring and unique take, but clearly wont be for everyone.

Mix it up this year, but also might want to leave the kids out of this one. Its only depressing if you can't find the humor and there is plenty of that.
