Night Watch

At first I didn't think I would like this movie, but I have to admit that I was very wrong. This was a very well done movie. It almost seems like a combination of Lord of the Rings and The Matrix. Honestly the majority of Russian movies we've watched in class are not in as good of quality as western films. But this film is a exception to the rule. The special effects were very good. The looked very realisticbirds in the funnel, the vampires looked very realistic. Everything in this movie was very realistic.

I didn't realize that Anton was the same character at the beginning of the movie just with longer. That confused me for the first part ofthe movie because I didn't know what the point of that scene was. This was important because we learn that Anton didn't choose to be good, instead he was thrown into the world by a few mistakes he made.

I noticed that the Dark forces in this movie are all that evil. Yes they do eat people occasionally, but the forces of good let them fo this. They aren't bent on the destruction of the world they don't want to destroy the good forces. It seems like they just want live their own life and not be affected by anyone else. This was an interesting way to portray this group of people.
