Movie Info
An anonymous young woman arrives in Manhattan on a bus. She receives numerous calls on her cell phone and proceeds to a hotel room. Assisted by various handlers, she prepares for her mission: to detonate a bomb in Times Square. She walks the city streets, but the time of her attack -- and thus that of her own death -- remains unknown.

very dry and realistic, down to every last detail, but ultimately goes nowhere

[font=Century Gothic]"Day Night Day Night" proves the old adage that if you have seen one suicide bomber walk through Times Square, then you have pretty much seen them all by so overloading on detail, that what is meant to be frightening instead just leads to a feeling of impatience from the viewer. Actually writer/director Julia Loktev is less concerned with terrorism then with how women are treated by men, in this case, a young woman(Luisa Williams) being coerced by men to do the unthinkable. However, this same woman has the gumption to get on a bus to travel cross country which would take a good deal of free will on its own. The one thing the movie gets perfectly right is the sensory overload to a new visitor to Times Square, giving some idea that the woman is from a less populated area and by her dress, very conservative. But her lack of hopelessness, desperation or anger do not give any indication that she would resort to such senseless violence. Her hyper-politeness clashes with the profile of a suicide bomber(The fellow members of her cell also act very considerately towards her...) in that she seems so afraid of hurting someone's feelings that she would never be rude on purpose, much less wish to blow them to kingdom come.

Intriguing story plot. An interesting performance by Luisa Williams. Worth seeing!
-
Sporadically effective but ultimately unsatisfying portrait of a suicide bomber.
