...No genre-changer...but it's bloody, occasionally clever and wears its underlying message about the perils of power lightly...

It's stylishly constructed and a better feminist vampire yarn than Twilight, but still problematic in itself.

A love triangle with fangs but no bite, the German import "We Are the Night" is mostly infatuated with its own stylish excesses.

I had so much fun watching this exercise in gory genre silliness I almost don't know where to begin.

Gansel compensates for the story's lack of emotional heft with rousing chase scenes and impressive, near-poetic CGI set pieces, and works in a sly suggestion that vampirism is the ultimate expression of consumerist indulgence.

We Are the Night's primary interest seems to be wish fulfillment, but it's hard to tell at times exactly whose fantasies these are supposed to be.

A slick, stylish (sometimes silly) vampire import. (Avoid the English dub version!)

Consumed with arranging a pretty picture than securing a ripe female-slanted take on seductive acts of evil and decadence. It's a fireworks display, not a meaty reinvention of a rusty genre.

an odd - and therefore interesting - blend of genetic elitism, feminist emancipation and rave-culture hedonism, where oldworld bloodlines leave a trail imprinted in the postmodern age - all wrapped in a slickly stylish audiovisual package.

This feels like a Luc Besson genre knock-off in the best sense of that phrase -- a spunky, stylish mash-up of vampire flick and police procedural, with just a dash of doomed romance. Demerits for the dubbing, though.

It's ambitious, energetic and downright fun. Director Gansel and his female-led cast manage to breathe refreshing new life into what some feel is an overdone subgenre in horror these days

Stylishly reinvents juvenile pulp with flashy pyrotechnics.
