La noche siempre llega

This is a dramatic thriller that is well done but is deeply unsettling. It is the story of a troubled family, featuring Vanessa Kirby as a struggling girl that is looking to protect her developmentally disabled brother. Her Mom, played by Jennifer Jason Leigh, is an even more troubled and the family stands to lose their home. This leads to the series of dramatic and thrilling events that place the life and safety of the characters in danger. The film is well acted and well filmed. The strength, beside the acting, is Direction and cinematography. It is dark and foreboding. The cast is great. I didn't;t love it and it made me feel like crap but it is well done.

There was absolutely no value to this film than showcasing a terrible family dynamic and disastrous flow of events. Disappointing to see Vanessa Kirby who is so full of potential reduce herself and waste her talents in this film.

I totally appreciate this can be the life of so many in society, some even worse than what is portrayed in the film. But my question is why and what were the key messages? We see a flawed female protagonist that's made bad life choices try to save her family and 'fight' for them but not have that reciprocated. What is the emotional payoff or point? Toxic things happen to people who make bad choices? I think you need more than that to deliver that emotional depth and stronger themes. Based on a pointless novel and a poor film. Come on Netflix stop making such poor films.

This is one of those films. No, it's not glossy, its meant to be grim and low-budget, their lives are hard and the tone reflects that. The people complaining that her spiral is unrealistic have clearly never been truly desperate for long enough.

A few quibbles, but overall a movie that is far better than the rating suggests.

Don't know what's with all the negative nellies, cool movie. Great acting by Kirby and her supprt, especially by Gottsagen who plays her special needs brother. One girl on mess of a night, a fun watch. Riveting and unexpected twists and turns with every next scene. Humorous as well with many odd interactions between characters.

It felt real, it certainly was no Hollywood story and certainly no Hollywood ending.

It's one of the best movies I've ever seen on Netflix and they sure have had some stinkers on there lately.

Vanessa Kirby and most of the supporting actors did a brilliant job of making the whole thing believable.
