Pacionsbo Absolutely Fantastic
Matylda Swan It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.
Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
Edwin The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.
sander-dammann #52filmsbywomenNight Moves is a classic example of a slow, but interesting movie. The pace is low, but it is not an annoying film to watch, due to the magnificent tension and atmosphere. Especially the first part of the movie is fantastic. The movie is getting even better due to the wonderful ambient music. Dakota Fanning is great too. She has a very great appearance and is very mysterious. Despite this is the second and third part of the movie not as good as the first part. The tension is gone due to a plot twist. That is a shame, but a good film nevertheless.
SnoopyStyle Josh (Jesse Eisenberg) and Dena (Dakota Fanning) are radical environmentalists. They buy a boat called "Night Moves". They along with troubled ex-Marine Harmon (Peter Sarsgaard) plan to bomb a dam. They buy a large quantity of fertilizer, make their bomb and deliver it on the boat.This is a slow, methodical movie. There are so many empty spaces. It's a two hour movie that could easily be squeezed in half. It's just so very slow. Everybody is doing mainly quiet acting. Some could see in it as deep emotional acting. They can read so much into their quietness. I can only read it as a lack of dialog. There are some emotional content in the second half but it's not enough.
Dennis Laursen Short time ago, I hear about this movie and The East, in my morning radio, during some debate about the environment. Both movies sounds very interesting, so I went out and buy both. The first one I watched, The East, was a strange and boring movie, who lacks a common thread and contains a dull plot-twist. Some days after, I then watched Night Moves, with the expectation that this movie was better. But on the contrary, Night Moves is even worse than The East! Night Moves is a boring and long-winded movie. It lasts for two hours, and the first hour(!) is just one long intro before the movie really starts. And even then the movie actually begins, it is very boring and slow. Actually, I stopped the movie 30 minutes before it ends, because I couldn't take it anymore. Too slow! Actually, I fast forward to the last 3 minutes, just to realise that the movie is even open ended! Why in the world are people still making open ended movies? That is the most incompetent thing in the world - a director should make a proper work, and not rely on his audience to do the rest of his work! Tell us how the thing ends!!! (this pulls the movie from 2, down to awful 1 out of 10 stars)The movie offer an interesting plot. But the two recent environment-movies, this and The East, are bad and not worth to watch. If you wants a good environment-movie, rather watch Steven Seagals "On Deadly Ground".
Jd Be One of the worst 5 films I have ever watched! Awful no story. No action. Soooo slow. 2 hours I will never get back. How can anyone rate this film. Will not rely on IMDb score when deciding what to watch. Need I say more. For the sake of saying more.Dreadful film! Why do I need to write 10 lines to say how dreadful the film was.Avoid Avoid terrible story line. Nothing positive to say. This is my first and last review after the effort I had to go to To write this I now understand why I would not look at these reviews again when deciding what to watch.
