MWG: Day Watch

We have been slacking! We skipped movies for a couple of months. Jer had picked this movie out, but I kept forgetting to post it so I’m finally getting it up here and we’ll just make it the November movie pick. This movie comes from a book series (Night Watch, Day Watch and Twilight Watch). I read the first book and Jer has actually read all three. We watched the first movie, but it didn’t really follow the book and it isn’t necessary to read them to follow the story. I decided I didn’t need to read the second book to watch this movie and I don’t think you need to read or watch the first movie to figure out what is going on with this one. At least I hope not, since we haven’t seen it yet. The trailer looks super awesome in terms of special effects and action. The director went on to make the Angelina Jolie movie Wanted.

Day Watch

Netflix synopsis: Anton (Konstantin Khabensky) finds himself in the middle of a mythic conflict between the forces of Light and Dark in this sequel to Night Watch, the surprise 2004 hit from Russia. To protect his son, who has come under the control of the dark side, Anton must seek an ancient artifact. But the powerful relic threatens to upset the uneasy peace between the two sides and puts Moscow at risk for a devastating cataclysm in this supernatural thriller.

Rotten Tomato Score: 63% (Certified Fresh Pick)
