Despite being rife with crime, sex and darkness, Manhattan Night feels increasingly like a cheap ripoff of the genre it so very much wants to fit into. Jan 2, 2017 | Rating: D+ | Full Review…

Director DeCubellis is frightfully beholden to the tropes of the genre, and the premise (involving blackmail, strange dares and an inexplicable horse story) is just not credible. Aug 26, 2016 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review…

The thrilling twists and turns of Harrison's plot are here, but DeCubellis's hazy pacing drains the film of the book's zest. Though great material mishandled is frustrating to view, there are nonetheless some bright spots. May 30, 2016 | Full Review…

It's pretty frustrating to watch a close-but-no-cigar movie like this. May 20, 2016 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review…

It's not a great movie but a welcome one, if only for how it attempts to revive a whole genre. May 19, 2016 | Full Review…

What sounds so delicious in the telling is pallid and ludicrous onscreen. May 19, 2016 | Full Review…

It's probably not something worth rushing out to cinemas for, but it's great afternoon viewing with a pack of smokes and a glass of scotch at the ready. Aug 28, 2018 | Rating: 3.1/5 | Full Review…

The payoff surprises by extending sympathy in unexpected directions. Besides, the stars really do look the part, with Brody making a convincingly dogged sleuth, while Strahovski is every inch the dangerously seductive siren. Sep 17, 2017 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

A mystery film that involves videotapes, blackmail, seduction games and assassinations. In his ambition to create a noir film, director Brian DeCubellis fails in his attempt and only offers an incoherent story. [Full review in Spanish] Mar 14, 2017 | Rating: 1.5/5 | Full Review…

DeCubellis never manages to captivate the viewer and doesn't have the necessary dramatic tensions. [Full review in Spanish] Mar 13, 2017 | Rating: 1.5/5 | Full Review…

Manhattan Night isn't a great example of the genre, but it's the best you'll get this side of 1959. Aug 26, 2016 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review…

The best noir films are as dry as their heroes; the self-consciousness of Manhattan Night makes it awfully hard to appreciate the things it does well. Aug 24, 2016 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

Norman Wilner
Adrian Brody is not a private detective exactly, but rather he's a investigative reporter. And he's not single and hardboiled, he's a family man if a little cynical. Notwithstanding the story is basically the same: a beautiful woman in danger with a mystery to solve and "can you help me" eyes, and legs, a mysterious but thoroughly dangerous rich guy with something to hide (Is there any other kind?), and finally, most of all, the dead body of a complete asshole everybody but everybody wants dead. Voila, it's the revenge of film noir, or the son, or film noir for millenials. Whatever the case, despite it's steadfast dedication to the form, this baby lacks the heart-dragged-through-the-gutter. Nice try though.
