Ooru naito rongu

The film offers a viable alternative to Japan's modernism, a perspective that sees the decline of values __and the death of Humanism.

But it's quite boring. It's not bad, but it's very slow. I'm not into art house films. Personally, as someone who loves art house, I view that genre differently and don't get bored. But I went into this film expecting gore. I'm not sure if there's a problem with my version. It's almost nonexistent, or perhaps not extreme, because I think I watched extreme. I'll also give it a chance and check out its sequels. I think All Night Long could lead me somewhere, given the chance. The characters are interesting, and I see the madness as a sign of modernism.

There might be hope for cult horror fans if Japan keeps making movies like "All Night Long." The tale of three high-school outcasts (the brainy geek, the aspiring pilot, and 'the guy with the car') who go after a savage gang of thugs after one of their girlfriends is raped and murdered is as lean and mean as classic revenge pics like "I Spit on Your Grave" and "House on the Edge of the Park." If the movie moves slow at times, it's with the good intention of developing the characters, which makes the violence of the last act more unsettling and personal.

6/10

After searching for some extreme Asian horror movie on IMDb this movie pop up and it been a long time since i watched a J-horror flick but after 90 minutes i finally realize how wrong i am.The movie have good start with characters i can relate too and there are strong performance thought out the movie but the rest is a complete trainwreck.The whole movie is just a bunch of random events smash together try to make sense but it executed so poorly.There three Japanese guy befriend with each other after witness a bizarre murder.I really care about these guys and want to know more about their live but the more the story go the more nonsense it become.I understand the movie goal is to show us audience the cold hard truth of reality but the way it approach is lazy as hell.The last 30 minutes of this movie is just simply mindless violence it seem like they don't know what to do next with the plot so they just show as much as gory disturbing stuff they can imagine and hope the audience sympathy with characters.If you interested with this movie feel free to check out the whole series by the same director

It seems that this film is mainly destined to teen audiences, because the leads are young adults. It is a social drama disguised in a horror film, that's my analysis; a vitriolic portrait of Japanese youth thru those grown up kids. It is not an European film, no matter the actors, it is sometimes totally f...up in the making of scenes, bloody, brutal, bitter and funny a few seconds later. Not for Western audiences anyway, except the die hard fans of Asian cinema and Japanese in particular. But it is not too long, only ninety minutes, and it makes things a lot easier for me. This is not a crime film, my real cup of tea concerning Rising Sun country films. It is bearable however, and it is also the first movie of a series. Without me though.

You should really give this movie a chance. At first when I started viewing this film it looked really crappy and low quality at first. The shots and colors were really bad; you could clearly notice that it was made by amateurs. But as I sat there I got more and more into the story. After a while I was completely hooked. The story builds up in such a great way. You don't really know what's going on at first. But after a when you find out, you almost get obsessed with it. I enjoyed the movie a lot The main message in All Night long is about how cruel and full of s*** human beings can be, especially men. It has a very depressing theme. There are no happy endings here. The atmosphere in the movie was really a depraved and dark. The movie is very silent in most of the scenes. There is almost no music, mostly noises. So when the violent parts of the movie starts to kick in the music stops. This is a great dramatic effect which makes it seem so much brutal.

The first All Night Long movie is defiantly the nastiest one. It has a lot of brutality and gruesome rape in it. It is very hard to watch. Not for those with weak stomachs. In some way it reminded me of a rape-revenge movie.
