30 days of night will take on the ride of your life with a whole month of no sun and hungry vampires.
30 Days of Night takes place in Barlow, Alaska where the residents fight to survive 30 days, a whole month of night with blood-crazy vampires trying to eat you. This film creates a scary and thrilling atmosphere and horror-filled as the survivors try to outsmart and outlast their predators.
I gave this film “30 Days of Night” a 5/5 rating because it is very intense and action packed with it going from a regular town to a full on vampire buffet. The creepy setting and all of the almost nonstop action kept me on edge the whole film. The actors played there parts very good, and the ending was perfect. This film was a 5/5 and took me on an entertaining and bloody journey.

As the movie starts out, John Constatine goes around to “deport” demons and send them back to hell. He teams up with a cop to help her with the random suicide of her sister. Later on they find out the cop used to be able to see demons too, then Satan comes up from hell and lets John Constatine suffer with living, and removing his cancer. The genres are Adventure, and Fantasy. The movie takes you on a journey of John Constatine just trying to die, but has to even out the balance beforehand. The fantasy part however, obviously in real life we don’t have hidden Angels and Demons walking around like regular people living day to day. But you could also see it as a drama because every step towards the solution, John and Isabele get pushed five steps back because someone somewhere pops out and just wants to fight. I liked the movie, however the storyline and VFX were horrible. The story line, although I like the genres, just was bumpy in simple words. It never followed a straight line, and was more like a rollercoaster that sends you off a cliff, and you somehow end up on the tracks again. I would never watch this movie again because of that. I like movies like Interstellar, Divergent, Don’t Worry Darling, where you have to follow along with the story to understand the movie. I missed school, only watched half of Constantine, and still perfectly understood it.

In the movie 30 Days of Night, Josh Hartnett plays a sheriff in a small town named Eben while he and his family are stuck while vampires are killing his entire town. I wouldn't recommend this movie to others as it's the same as almost every other vampire horror movie. The only interesting scene was possibly the fastest in the entire movie with no distinct actions in it.
Josh has semi-decent acting within this movie same as other cast members. The hard watch of this movie was the overacting vampires, the language they speak along with gross but somewhat realistic feedings, it had just made it a horrible movie to watch as someone who doesn't like horror films.
There was nothing that stood out within this film to make it memorable. It felt like every other vampire/love story movie anyone has ever watched. The camera angles of the vampires were just plain cheesy. “30 days of night” just felt like one big all-nighter, there was no distinct difference between any of the days.
In my opinion, if your looking for a vampire movie, go watch The Twilight Saga: Eclipse made by the same director.

30 Days of Night is a movie directed by David Slade released in 2007 starring John Hartnett, Melissa George, Danny Huston, Mark Boone Junior. 30 days of night is a horror/thriller with elements of action. Is 30 days of night horribly paced? In the small town of Barrow, Alaska, experiences 30 days of night, some townsfolk head south for the winter while others decide to stay,
As mentioned this movie was directed by David Slade, this movie keeps you engaged with the tense moments and enthralling dialogue exchanges between the action keeps the movie engaging though at times is uneventful and slow it still manages to keep the viewer entertained for the most part. The acting is perfect for the situation that the characters are put in for the story,
Josh Hartnett plays the divorced cop very well, Melissa George plays the role of the ex wife, Mark Boone Junior plays the rugged hunter, the one who stood out the most was Mark Boone's Junior his Portrayal of the character is the most unique, because of how well he fits the part look and voice add to the believable feel to the character.
I personally like the tense feeling throughout the movie, on the other hand the movie is a bit slow at some points, the film exceeded my expectations with how tense some of the scenes were, this is a good movie for a scary movie night with some popcorn,
I thought the movie was fine nothing to rave about, but also not much to complain about, some decisions the characters make, made little to no sense, overall i'd give the movie 2.5 stars out of five

In this film 30 days of night directed by David Slade was the best vampire film I have seen and I hate vampire movies and this was a all around good movie. Now this small town there is 30 days of night so a month full of darkness where a group of vampires choose to feast on this small town and try to take advantage of it and there's not a lot of survivors but a small group and there is a sheriff that too lead them to safety and gets some people there and ends up dying in the end to save his close freinds. But I recommend this movie to others because I didn't think I'd like it and it changed my mind a lot don't trust a book by its cover.

I thought that 30 Days of Night was a pretty good movie, and it definitely got me scared at times. The death scenes are quite brutal but fitting.
Summary of the film:
In the Alaskan town of Burrow, a period of time comes where the sun doesn't rise for 30 days. In this time, bloodthirsty vampires storm the town with the goal of killing the whole town. A small band of misfit survivors must make it all 30 days until the sun comes up.
The gore was very realistic. (which I enjoyed) and it will keep you on the edge of your seat. The director, David Slade knew exactly how to adapt vampires in the perfect way, straying from the normal tropes of garlic, mirrors, etc. and instead did his own thing. The actors, Josh Hartnett, Melissa George, Danny Huston, and Ben Foster did an amazing job, showing the fear and terror one would experience in this situation.
