If you are a Grammer fan, you will not want to miss his excellent performance regardless of how much knowledge of Walkow’s filmography you bring to the movie.

7/10

For a film with a small budget and scope, the themes are existential, vast, sprawling.

4.5/5

Grammer’s beautifully-pitched depiction of a disenfranchised man with a profoundly confused mind will break your heart. A minor miracle of speculative existentialism.

3/5

About as offbeat as a movie as you’re going to find starring a six-time Emmy Award winner, Lars Shrike Walks the Night is a strange journey of self-discovery that embraces the ambiguity of being, of consciousness and reality.

The title is the most compelling part of this glum, tedious metafictional meditation.

It’s slow. But lead Kelsey Grammer’s presentation of Lars is entirely believable. His is a journey worth taking.

Kelsey Grammer is an amazing actor. He's Frasier. That lasts forever. But in all seriousness, I could have played this role as well as he did.
