Nightride

Can't believe the bad reviews. This in an excellent, well filmed thriller with a great central performance fae Moe Dunford. A great screenplay from Ben Conway also.

This wasn't a terrible film, but based on the description I hoped for more action and such. Most of the movie is shot inside the main characters car, as he navigates the streets to chase down his one last job before quitting that life forever . I would say that the idea was there and it was an interesting concept but could have been executed better. Overall not a bad movie but feels very drawn out.

With 90 minute play time, it hardly has a dull moment considering there are no CGI or fancy stunts.

Do not pay attention to the rating. The acting is great. The characters (not many of them) are interesting and story is simple, to the point.

Worth a watch.

If you liked THE GUILTY (Den skyldige, 2018), LOCKE (2013), WHEELMAN (2017), you will like this. There is anxiety and tension, it is thrilling enough to keep your interest and to make you invest, and finally, the actors are doing a good job. 5.7/10 is an unfair rating, i don't understand the low ratings, this is a fine little flick if you know what to expect and if you can use your imagination.

Despite a lot of the negative reviews here, this film is a solid watch. Single take, in the same vein as Locke - namely all action circling around the main protagonist with a few stop offs and on screen dialogues most of the film is set inside his car via a series of phone calls. A bit of a marmite film I guess. Sometimes veering into and depending on convenient plot armour, the film pulls off what is a difficult premise with the single camera take. Really enjoyed it, worth a go if you're looking for something a bit different.
