American Night

Actually it's a nice action film with also a good sparkle of drama. It might be a little confusing at the beginning but you'll figure everything out as the movie goes on. Shoutout to the cast, Jonathan Rhys Meyers in particular and Emile Hirsch, who plays a quite convincing villain and properly comes out at the end in all of his madness.

I have to admit, the actors present in this movie surprised me by their presence. I did not expect to see so many people in this that I would recognize. Some things work better with them than other I reckon. Be water my friend - I think the delivery of this works. The blindfold part ... barely. You do question the motive of the character - even though I reckon you can explain everything ... still it does not work as good as the movie thinks it does.

That being said, just the fact that you have people who know how to act helps elevate the movie to a bigger level than maybe the script would have been worth without them. The action is well choreographed. Emile Hirsch relishes in being the bad guy too ... a bit of mayhem ... and a bit of love of b movies should be there in yourself to begin with.

Unconventional plot, nice setting, good acting. Two hours well spent, definitely.

The movie made a huge impression on me, especially its aesthetic part. The editing was on point and the fact that everything in the movie is connected to art makes it obvious that one of the goals of the movie is for the viewer to enjoy the picture they see. What makes art truly good? Feelings.

Some of the scenes are so powerful they would definitely make you feel strong emotions. Whether you're an art enthusiast or simply someone who appreciates a well-crafted story, this movie offers something to treasure. Every moment invites the viewer to not only watch but to feel, absorb, and ultimately connect with the beauty and emotion of the story being told. It's an unforgettable experience that I believe will stay with me for a long time to come. So the movie is good from both, emotional and aesthetic sides. Definitely recommend it.

Paz Vega was outstanding in her role, and her character played a crucial part in the story, bringing depth and connecting the destinies of the mafia boss Michael Rubino and the art dealer and forger John Kaplan. Her performance was magnetic, guiding both men toward an intense, bloody, and spectacular finale that had me captivated. This film is a rare blend of action and art, with countless references to different artistic forms that enrich the experience. The nonstop action kept me fully engaged, eagerly anticipating each twist and turn. I strongly recommend this to anyone looking for a thrilling cinematic experience with a touch of artful sophistication.
