Movie Reviews of After Hours

Movie Review: Sublime sleeper
Summary: 5 Stars

I loved this film the first time I saw it. The humor in it is a concoction of "everyman" experiences and fantasies. The setting seems ethereal and the main character's trial reminds me of Dante's Inferno. The cast is a parade of 80's actors that largely play low-key but two-dimensional roles (which really makes this movie what it is IMO.)

Summary of After Hours

Studio: Warner Home Video Release Date: 08/17/2004 Run time: 97 minutes Rating: Nr
This well-regarded cult film is a tense Kafka-esque tale concerning what happens to a likable computer guy who is in the wrong place at the wrong time in the city that never sleeps--New York. This is a New York infested with bizarre characters vividly brought to life by a once-in-a-lifetime cast. Griffin Dunne's wonderfully controlled comic performance as Paul Hackett is the glue that holds this increasingly surreal film together. Scorsese utilizes a full array of independent and underground film techniques, including special film speed manipulations, angles, and edits, deftly capturing the strange rhythms of an after-hours New York City. Many will find the jokes clever, and occasionally laugh-out-loud funny. Some, however, will find the film an excruciating series of staged circumstances setting up a sadistically cruel dark nightmare of horrors. And there are a few lines of dialogue so poorly written they remind you how unbelievable the thin story really is. But forgive the film these few lapses--overall it's a wild, surreal ride. The most offbeat character is the beehive-sporting, Monkee-obsessed neurotic played to perfection by Teri Garr. And the moment when Griffin Dunne uses his last quarter to play Peggy Lee's "Is That All There Is" and dances with Verna Bloom while an angry mob searches SoHo for him is an inspired bit of lunacy. --Christopher J. Jarmick
