Night Has Come

A number of students at a retreat are surprised when all the staff and teachers suddenly go missing. They then hear an announcement where an actual game of Mafia will be played and they will have to vote each night for the death of one of them. It is based on the usual Mafia game with Mafia, Civilians, Police officers and Doctors. There are boundaries so they cannot leave the scene and the game must be played out. All the young actors do a good job and there are many twists and turns as the body count mounts up. Don't take it too seriously and enjoy the journey to who will survive in the end.

This Korean drama is in the mould of older Japanese and Korean thrillers. If you liked Oldboy and Battle Royale, you'll probably enjoy this. However, the kill scenes are pretty gory so please be warned.

The pace is great and keeps you on the edge of your seat. There are plot twists that keep in interesting, and if you avoid thinking too much about the plot holes, you might enjoy the show.

The acting was mediocre but they are all relatively young and it's not bad enough to ruin any scenes,

This is another enjoyable Korean thriller for fans on Squid Games and The Glory. I'd recommend it if you enjoyed those shows.

Loved it!! I will try to explain myself as good as possible to avoid giving spoilers :) Everything about it was genius. It gave me the Among Us vibes haha. Great characters. Great actors. I saw people complaining about acting. Totally disagree. There were moments when actors did great. Especially on sad moments. I for exampled ended up loving the ones I hated in the beginning and hated the ones I liked. There were moments when this show left me speechless...and I loved it because I was always waiting for the next episode. The ending was a bit strange. I was expecting something different to be honest... BUT it wasn't that bad because now they can make a season 2. It deserves a season 2. At first I thought it was better to end it like this than ruin it with other seasons as other shows do,but after I saw the ending...I think a s2 doesn't sound so bad.

The drama is entertaining for sure. The pace is fast, acting is good and has an original concept.

Crazy plot twists and not predictable at all but the last plot twist was too unbelievable. I mean this wasn't a believable drama from the start, a bunch of students get stuck in a youth center and they are forced to start playing a game where they have to kill each other to survive.

Until then everything is good and although there's a few holes in the plot, you can ignore them and enjoy the action and rhythm of trying to figure out who are the bad guys and who will die every night ( be aware there's many very graphic violence and blood in this drama and they are not subtle showing them....)

But then towards the end there's a major change/twist in the plot that it's so unbelievable crazy, I am not sure it works for me. I feel like its the typical kdrama storyline of guilt tripping mixed with revenge koreans love so much and it just frustrates me.

Regardless, I think the ending is very fitting and I don't think we need a sequel for this.

Overall a nice watch for a Friday night with friends.

The Night Has Come is a solid 8/10-a visually striking film that delivers a moody, immersive experience. The cinematography is beautifully crafted, with every scene thoughtfully composed to draw you into its world. The music pairs perfectly, setting a tone that's both haunting and captivating, enhancing the story's emotional pull.

At times, the plot can be a bit confusing, with a few moments that leave you wondering where the story is headed. But overall, it comes together nicely, offering a unique experience that's both intriguing and memorable. Fans of atmospheric storytelling will find a lot to appreciate here.
