Inclubabu Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.

Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Francene Odetta It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

lovelytoo Day and Night has been shown on Australian TV four or five times and I watch it again every time and appreciate it more each time. I am not surprised that other viewers either love it or hate it. This is the mark of a good movie! Also, I am not surprised that it was originally promoted as a dark comedy. In my last viewing I often found myself laughing at some scenes but, of course, the subject is unrelentingly grim.What I like most is the screenplay technique of using the claustrophobic car for the whole movie. It would work equally well as a stage play, yet it is still cinematic. The use of the car conveys the sense of a journey (like life), the ultimate road movie if you like! The final scene is a cinematic gem (the rain as tears, the empty front passenger seat).Above all I found myself caring for the characters, all of them. This is the mark of good writing. The top-notch casting and performances contribute to this empathic response but it is the dialogue that is so engaging. In particular, Thomas' wife, his son, his sister, his lover and even his mother (who remembered him at the end) all love him. His other travelling companions care about him, even the old man (who confides his innermost thoughts), Jacob (who respected him) and the "whore" (who will not do it for money!). More importantly Thomas loves all his family because, like a child, he wants to hurt them by his goodbyes. The scene where Emil rejects him, outside the car, and then Thomas cries when he returns to the car, is a heart-starter. Thomas is clearly in emotional pain. Yet he can't think "outside the box". This is why the scene with Emil's dead bird is so sad because Thomas is a canary in a cage by choice. Thomas says he will hurt his family less when he is dead. Oi! My response to this movie is that I want to reach out and stop the car...... That, my friends, is good movie making! If I was a depression-counsellor I would show this to my clients! I think anyone who was depressed would understand Thomas and see he was in a cage of his own making. Call me irresponsible if you like. Anyway, I am looking for the DVD (Region 4) and can't find it yet.

jag_avgudar_barca Mikael Persbrandt is one of my favorit actors in Sweden. But he is a total blackout in this one. Everyone was awful, not to mansion that the camera stays in the vehicle for the entire movie.I hated it, sure, many people who want's to think over they're lifes can see this but in my eyes this movie is cr?p.Then why I rate the movie if I hate it? The answer is simple: I wan't to warn evrybody out there! Don't watch it...The only person I like in this movie is the soccer coach. He is making a good performance in a movie that is totally... yeah I've said that it's bad a couple of times now...Don't watch it. PLEASE!!!

cooling_boy1 I think this film is one of the best i ever seen. When you have seen it for the first time you have a lot of things to think about because the film really mention important things and facts about life. The film doesn't become boring when it is made in a car and that the main character is driving through the whole film. And that's because the plot is interesting and that the actors are very good. I like this film for two reasons: That the actors are really good and that the plot is very important and interesting. Mikael Persbrandt does one of his very best appearances in this film and he is really outstanding. It's very much worth seeing because if him. So i can really recommend you to go and see this film if you haven't done it yet. You won't become disappointed. So do your a favor. See it today!

stensson This is a different road movie. The main character has decided to kill himself in the evening and spends his last day driving around to say good-bye to everybody, including his mistress, his son, the son's soccer coach, his mother and so on. Nobody knows that this good-bye is definite.This is about a person crying for help and nobody hears it. The reason for that is that almost everyone the main character meets, has problem like his or even much worse. Nobody has any solution. It is about people trying to reach out, but not being even close to touch anyone.This is in most cases very well played, especially by Michael Nyquist and Pernilla August. The episodes do however not have the same quality entirely. Some of the episodes could even have been left out. The script really needs good actors, because if you just read it, you would find it rather uncomplicated, although it deals with complicated people.
