  • 9 sep 2008 · Like The Matrix, Day Watch combines cutting-edge digital effects and mind-blowing action to create a stunningly original world. This Unrated ...

  • After 'Nochnoi Dozor' ('Night Watch') became the biggest blockbuster in Russian cinematic history, it didn't take long for director Timur Bekmambetov to get working on the next installment in his proposed trilogy. The follow-up 'Dnevnoy Dozor' ('Day Watch') suffers the same faults as all too many sequels to successful movies. It's bigger, louder, more expensive, grander in scope, duller, dumber, repetitive, and derivative. It has all the weaknesses of the first film with fewer of the strengths.

  • There is some confusion in terms of the adaptation credits when it comes to the second film in Sergei Lukyanenko's "Watch" series, as it appears that writer-director Timur Bekmambetov has reportedly retooled the second and third parts of the three-part novel, "Nochnoi Dozor" (Night Watch) and not the actual second novel, "Dnevnoi Dozor" (Day Watch).  Not having read the novels myself, I really can't vouch for this information, but if that's the case, it's just as well that this series confounds fans of the books just as much as it does non-readers.
