Consider a cross between Star Wars and Underworld and maybe some Matrix thrown in.  There is some really good stuff in this movie if your willing to work to follow the devilishly hard to follow plot.  There is quite a bit of mythology to absorb and understand.  Then there are even more plot twists and sudden revelations to grasp.  Lastly, there is at least two stories going on in this first installment.

So, do not make the mistake I did and see it with a bunch of babblers with no patience for complexity who are too busy eating chocolate fondue to note the excellence of this movie.

So, where was I.  Yes, the 4 part book is by a Russian named Nochnoi Dozor. There appear however to be only 3 movies.  In russia, the movie became a sensation blowing away all other blockbusters such as spiderman and shrek etc.

The plot is a bit beyond this blog posting so I won’t even try to do justice here.

I’d definetly recommend this movie. Do note the above warning. Its not for the non serious movie watcher.
