Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??

It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

I really do not understand why this movie did not fare well. Liam neesan,
Joel Kinnaman and Ed Harris gave one of their best performances ever.
Despite being a brutal action movie, it did have some values. Among the
four Liam Neeson - Jamue collet Serra colloboration, I would rate
Run all Night the best. Good camera work and effective background music.
Crisp editing. Ravi Chatles.

This movie felt very long, not that it was boring just that I've seen it all before from Liam Neeson. He plays exactly the same character here as he has since he started his badass aging action hero career. We've seen this growly, revenge man in all the Taken movies, Nonstop, Unknown. And despite the ongoing carnage he sets off here in "one night" in N.Y with shootouts, car chases burning buildings, stabbings, crazed hit men (Common) it all still felt kinda meh. Here Liam is a booze addled former hit man, a shell of his former self, haunted by his life of crime and laughed at or pitied by his mob boss/old friend (Ed Harris) and his cronies. When his estranged son (Joel Kinnaman) gets marked to be killed by his bosses son, Neeson is forced to turn against his employers, put down the bottle and protect his son at all costs. Some great scenes of dialogue with Liam and Harris and I enjoyed Joel Kinnaman. I also liked the story hook which sees Neeson forced to tun against his lifelong friend and and work with his son, unfortunately the running, shooting, hunting, chasing, and killing, went on and on becoming sorta mindless. Like I said, meh, ultimately forgettable.

"Run all Night" is the most recent movie from a new director i highly admire, Jaume Collet-Serra. And this movie is his third collaboration with Liam Neeson, after the two strikes "Unknown Identity" and "Non-Stop", the latter is my favourite plane-centered-action- thriller to date. (I also want to mention that he did one of my favourite psycho- horror-thrillers "Orphan")Even though this guy's first movie was the "House of Wax"-Remake, which isn't that great, he managed to get his own style and voice, and i like his work very much.And this movie is no exception. It's a very well told, and intriguingly written Gangster-Revenge-Thriller, with Liam Neeson and Ed Harris as old Gangster-buddies, who try to kill each other, after Neeson killed Harris son, to protect his own.The title has a good reason to appear four times (!) in the movie, because the movie's really set during one night, and hell what a beautiful night it is. All the transition-shots to other locations, literally fly over the whole city and stop at the new location, and between moments where some time passes, there are just shots of the nightlife of the city, so you really feel the atmosphere. It reminded me of some of Michael Manns movies.The action is very well directed, intense and brutal. And the characters, get believably hurt, and never feel like they are unbeatable, like in other recent action movies. The best comparison would be "A good day to die Hard", where John McClane and his son have to team up to survive, but they are never in real danger, the bad guys are bland, and the action over-the-top.This movie is the fifth Die Hard i wish we'd got, plus much more drama than i expected. The movie never relies on painting the characters bad, or good and role with it, they are believable and all of them have a dark and a light side. Liam Neeson plays a guy who would be an unlikeable asshole if it wasn't for his charisma which keeps you interested in him, and his relationship to mobster- boss Ed Haris feels real and it's great when you see Neeson killing him, but when he dies in his arms, you see that they respect each other after all, and wished non of this had happened. It's great stuff, and fairly well told.Technically it's also very well made, the night scenes are a little too dark at times, but you see what's necessary, and the soundtrack by Junkie XL fits very well, and helps setting the dark tone.All in all a very enjoyable, dark and dramatic Action-Thriller which will entertain you the whole night through...
