Day Shift
quisha-0119518 August 2022
I love Jamie Foxx he is a very talented person, that's what made me watch this movie. The movie wasn't horrible, but I will not watch it again, it was some great people in the movie Meghan Goode, Dave Franco, Snoop Dogg. The action sequence were pretty good the plot had holes in it. But overall a 5 out of 10.

Don't quit your day job.

It's a fun movie, that's about it. If you can turn your brain off, and watch this lifeless, brainless very forgettable vampire film then you may enjoy a few scenes. It's a one time watch, a different spin from any other vampire film.

Jamie Foxx is slowly dragging himself down from an academy award winning A-list actor to now I'll do anything for a check Bruce Willis B-/C+ actor. Let's spin the wheel of fortune and see where Netflix will land Jamie Foxx next, Maybe in space.

Meagan Goode role is minimal, not enough to impact the film....thank god Dave Franco add a Comedic twist similar to a buddy cop film. He is the weird, corky partner who manages to get himself in all the wrong situations.

Oh yea vampires everywhere. Fight scenes are entertaining. All in all don't expect much and you will live. Fun for the family.

Disappointing
chazrarc18 August 2022
I once thought Jamie Foxx was a decent actor but this performance has me wondering why I ever thought that or is the writing just that atrocious? I admit, I didn't know if it was a series or a movie when I turned it on but half way in I was thinking it was a series because not much had happened yet. There is no character development. The dialogue is terrible. It's straight to dvd quality. I've seen worse but I was definitely expecting more.

Are you a 4 or 8?

It's a fun movie. Yes, the acting wasn't the strongest suit here but it has comedy, it has action and it has vampires.

If you watch every movie like a film critic then it's a 4/10.

If you are someone who just wants a fun movie to watch and enjoy then it's a solid 8/10.

I love very much this movie because I love to watch slasher movies, and beleive this movie contains action, horror, commedy and main part of this movie is story, perfect story.

So so bad

Warning: Spoilers
This movie is a complete paint-by-the-numbers snorefest, dressed up as a flashy action buddy comedy. The action is poorly choreographed, the actors have no chemistry, and the movie looks cheap. Dave Franco is straight up intolerable, not because he is a typical pencil pusher pushed into the field, but because he feels like a teenager in a high school skit acting as a pencil pusher pushed into the field.

The only redeeming quality is some of the world building. The idea that vampire fangs are treated like precious gems is actually somewhat fun and their value served as a clever reason for the leads to not simply expose the vampires to the sun to kill them. Other than that, I struggle to find anything else nice to say about this film...snoop dog is fun I guess?? That's about it.
