Night Walk

When you see headliner names like Mickey Rourke, Eric Roberts and Louis Mandylor, you'd expect a fairly decent B-grade film with the trio as leads. Wrong. If there was such a thing, this would be a F-grade film. Firstly, Mandylor may have had 30 seconds tops of screen time. Roberts, maybe 2 minutes, if even that, total screen time. Rourke, maybe 3 minutes total, tops - in a miserably long and dragged out 97 minute religious propaganda film. I'm questioning if they even knew they were being cast in a religious propaganda film.

Writer, director, producer, and actor in this film Aziz Tazi wrote a sloppy convoluted plot-issues riddled cringe-worthy story which didn't know what it wanted to focus on; wrongfully accused? High level corruption? Religious conversion? Prison escape? Retribution? It was just a sloppy convoluted mess.

The directing, cinematography and editing was probably the worst I've ever seen. You will shake your head when you see how some of the scenes were filmed. The score and sound were atrocious. The cast were not properly directed, and most looked like it was there first acting gig. Aside from the top trio (non)leads, the (at)best and only convincing performance was by Patrick Kilpatrick, who basically carried the performances on his shoulder.

I've reviewed over 1,000 films on this site, and this has to be in my top 10 worst films of all time. I's a very generous 2/10 from me, all going to the absentee trio stars and Kilpatrick.

I tried to watch (because of Mickey Rourke and Eric Roberts of course) but had to quit - this is really a bad movie and not one of the bad kind that somehow manages by magick or other unknown forces to strike back as an entertaining and funny queen of cheese. On top, we get one cliche after another served, scenes and character wise. Everyone who watches this from the beginning to the end should get something like the Purple Heart - be warned: the damage to your mind and heart may be of sincere and permanent nature ;)

The other reviews are either 10 stars or, like mine, 1 star. If you are warmed by the religious sentiment I guess you'll love this film. If you love good films.... just don't watch it. Truly awful.

I don't know what the hype is with this film but it definitely doesn't deserve the 6.1 rating it got. Being the kind of person who watches a film almost every single day, I have seen my fair share of terrible films but I had never felt the need to leave a review before. This film is the single most horrible production I have ever seen in my life. The story is quite uninteresting, the acting is horrendous, the characters are all extremely shallow and badly written. I wouldn't give it any stars if I could but unfortunately that's not possible.

If you're into movies like Birdemic and Human Centipede 3, this one's for you. Full of bad acting and coma-inducing religious messages riddled throughout. To be fair, Roberts and Rourke weren't bad, what little you see of them. I wonder what that cost?

Kilpatrick kept me watching, even if his lines seemed adlibbed at times. No direction I suppose.

3/10.
