Yikes, another dud for Dolph.
This plot has been done to death, by every wannabe action star and it still sucks. The plot is overdone, the dialogue is boring and the acting marginal.
He was a terrible actor in his prime and it seems that he hasn't improved - so really practice does not at all make perfect.
Words cannot express how horrible this movie is.
Who signs off on it's production?
Are they proud of their work?
Do they have any concept of shame?
There is nothing else to say besides save the 1.5 hours of your life and read a book.
In summary, don't waste your time.
It is a disaster, very bad acting, very bad camera scenes,very bad movie effects, very bad everything.
The voters are probably their friends and neighbors, because u can´t vote more than 2 if u are person with the normal taste for movies.
This is what happens when you watch too many action movies and have lots of resources and you think making an action film is easy peasy!
At some point I thought they were practicing or shooting for another film, someone filmed them and released as a movie!
What a waste!
Hard Night Falling (2019) is less action-thriller, more nap-inducing bore. Dolph Lundgren headlines as the tired hero battling burglars and pacing so slow it might reverse time. While Lundgren occasionally brings gravitas, even he can't save a film so lacking in tension, energy, or personality.
The plot-a hostage situation during a heist-borrows liberally from Die Hard but leaves behind the fun, stakes, or sharp pacing. The rest of the cast delivers performances best described as "wooden," while the action sequences fall flat with lifeless choreography and underwhelming direction.
For every stoic moment of Lundgren, the film desperately needed triple the excitement, but instead offers all the thrills of a broken elevator. The glossy visuals and a handful of decent shots suggest effort, but effort isn't enough to make this bargain-bin thriller worth your time. Better to skip this one and rewatch Die Hard.

I'm not sure what Dolph is thinking being in such a terrible movie. It's awful in every way possible, and I thought his last movie I've seen The Tracker was terrible but this was even worse. I could hardly get through this movie but the absurdity of the acting, writing, special fx made me laugh. Dolph should've just retired after Aquaman, seems he's in competition with Steven Seagal of who can make the most bad movies...
