One evening, Mady--a young student by day, locksmith by night--receives an emergency call from Claire to open a lock. But the door the young woman wants to open isn't hers, and the bag she runs away with isn't hers either. It belongs to Yannick, a vicious mobster who blames Mady and will stop at nothing to retrieve his stolen goods. Mady has only one night to prove his innocence and save his neck. What started out as an ordinary night shift turns into a brutal descent into violence. NIGHT CALL is a no-holds-barred crime thriller that ambitiously combines genres, from film noir to action-packed survival.

An action movie that's daring, dark, and distinctly wild, Night Call is not to be missed.

Austin Chronicle

By avoiding that limiting conceit, Blanchart gives Night Call an almost classical feel as Mady tries to outwit hardened criminals and belligerent cops and make it to morning alive.

Rated: 3.5/5

Toisto.net

Night Call, the directorial debut from Michiel Blanchart... is a breathless and intense thrill ride through Belgium over the course of a single, chaotic night. Written and directed with such confidence you’d never believe it was a first feature.

Rated: 4/5

Lee Zumpe

Tampa Bay Newspapers

The backdrop of a city draped in darkness — but roiling with restlessness and antagonism as protests against police brutality lead to sporadic skirmishes in the streets — creates an almost dreamlike atmosphere.

I loved the main charater. Some of the bad guys were really cliche'. It did keep an okay pace.

Moody C

This is an intense, high octane thriller that you don’t see often these days. It’s so exciting with some action scenes quite original that I honestly forgot I’m reading subtitles. Some social commentary towards end but for most part it’s just a great action thriller. Only minuses are some scenes that defy logic but it’s not really trying to be too much here except some good popcorn fun for 90 minutes.

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars
