2.0 out of 5 stars Butler fans, don't rush to buy, February 2, 2006

Gerard Butler fans, don't rush out to buy this one. He is not in it. It's a glitch on the part of Amazon. If you did buy it and are still looking at the extras in an attempt to find him, just relax and forget it. Eat popcorn. This one is a pale copy of a 1940s film with Richard Widmark that you may like much, much better. Widmark could have menaced snarly rings around ol' 'You talkin' to me?'

3.0 out of 5 stars FUNNY TALE ABOUT A LOVABLE LOSER., November 21, 2003

By 

Alejandro Cortes (Mexico) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Night & The City [VHS] (VHS Tape)

"Night And The City" is not a great drama, neither a great comedy, but it is an entertaining and funny movie. Robert De Niro is Harry Fabian, a loser who tries to put his hands in more things that he can really manage, and Jessica Lange is Helen Nasseros, Harry's love interest, despite she is a married woman.

As the story unfolds, there will be several tragedies in the path of our two antiheroes, all these tragedies are a combination of drama, farce and comedy. Definitely, "Night And The City" is not a classic, but it is a funny movie, recommendable for all the fans of the great Robert De Niro that are trying to see the entire Robert De Niro catalogue (like myself). At the end of the day this is an entertaining movie.

3.0 out of 5 stars OLD-FASHIONED TRIBUTE TO GANGSTER FILMS ala JOHN GARFIELD, or BROADWAY DANNY ROSE MEETS RUPPERT PUPKIN, August 26, 2006

This review is from: Night & The City [VHS] (VHS Tape)

As the title of this review suggests that NIGHT AND THE CITY is kinda like BROADWAY DANNY ROSE MEETS RUPPERT PUPKIN; or JOHNNY from MEAN STREETS if he was a shmuck lawyer instead of Pure Anarchy. I'm big fans of Cliff Gorman and Alan King. And JESSICA LANGE will always be a Hollywood goddess to me. It's just an old-fashioned gangster melodrama of the type Warner Brothers put out in the 1930s and 1940. DeNiro was in the John Garfield role, and Jessica Lange was in the Ann Sheridan role. Cliff Gorman was played by George Raft, or Bogart. And Alan King was played by E.G. Robinson. Jack Warden was played by Alan Jenkins. He loses his mind before the big fight and dies of a heart attack. NIGHT AND THE CITY is a tribute to the old fashioned classic gangster films.
