Tagline: All That Stands Between Light And Darkness Is The Night Watch.
Plot: Set in contemporary Moscow, NIGHT WATCH (NOCHNOI DOZOR) revolves around the conflict and balance maintained between the forces of light and darkness -- the result of a medieval truce between the opposing sides. As night falls, the dark forces battle the super-human "Others" of the Night Watch, whose mission is to patrol and protect. But there is constant fear that an ancient prophecy will come true: that a powerful "Other" will rise up, be tempted by one of the sides, and tip the balance plunging the world into a renewed war between the dark and light, the results of which would be catastrophic.NIGHT WATCH (NOCHNOJ DOZOR) is the first installment of a trilogy based on the best-selling sci-fi novels of Sergei Lukyanenko entitled Night Watch, Day Watch and Dusk Watch. The film is the official Russian contender for Best Foreign Language Film for the 2005 Academy Awards. --© Fox Searchlight

Americans haven't really worried about the Russians since the Cold War ended. But if Night Watch really is, as the trailer suggests, "the breakthrough film of modern Russian cinema," Hollywood may well have reason to.  --groovyfokker (horrorchannel.com)
Night Watch is directed by Timur Bekmambetov, who has a background in music videos. This is both a blessing and a curse because the visuals are a mixed bag. There is some interesting and quite stunning imagery, but there is way too much style over substance.  --Tex (Bloody-Disgusting.com)

| A decent movie once you understand all the events that are happening. I wouldn't recommend viewing it until the sequel is close to its release in the US though, otherwise you'll be left with a lot of plot and no action. 6/10 --FrighT MasteR (UHM)
