When Night Falls (2007)
Slow first half, fantastic second half

When Night Falls is almost a Jekyll and Hyde kind of film.
After a great little prologue, the first half is very slow and atmospheric. Apart from getting to know the characters, not a lot else happens.
Then, in the second half, all hell breaks loose! There's lots of scares, actions, twists...everything!!
I really loved the second half, but personally did find the buildup of the first half too slow. I can see that the director wanted us to get to know and care about the characters, which is great, but a few boo moments or something would have helped to keep the audience on the edge of their seats.
So: First half - 5/10 Second half - 10/10 Overall - 7/10
