I appreciate doomesday, survival, apocalyptic type movies. This is one that centers around a typical California couple living in la-la land when an attack occurs. No food, no gun, no skills. It's only them an a looter in the movie. Very realistic scenario for 99% of California residents on how they would survive. .

It wasn't a comic book movie and it didn't have CGI.....so, could have been worse.

This movie is dreadful. The characters are all loathsome and their reactions to what happened are ridiculous. At least the filmmakers didn't spend any money on this. I was rooting for the radiation and was stunned that an hour and 18 minutes could go by so slowly. Watch Patterns, Testament or On the Beach instead.

Very realistic in what would happen after a nuclear bomb. Their marriage was also exploding. The nothingness. The destruction. The creation of something that you never knew you didn't want to lose.

Reviews with very vague summaries and similar writing styles should tell you all you need to know about the super positive ones. It's bad enough to write fake reviews to prop up a bad film, but why make them so preposterously over the top you can't help but see that they are fake? Anyway, to the film itself, it was definitely low budget, and looked every bit of it. The most lackluster nuclear explosion in cinema history made that obvious to me. But, low budget doesn't necessarily mean bad movie, but in this case the plot, confined 95% to a single apartment, has no room to breathe, and the acting and writing wasn't believable / good enough to carry the film on its own. You'd never notice how amateur the acting is if that wasn't the only thing you had to pay attention to the entire film. The "token black guy" stowaway is light years better actor than the leads. Pity that he is there so rarely to bring some life into the film. The movie feels every bit of its short run time (and then some), and the ending is a slow, painful drag that telegraphed itself in the 1st 5 seconds of the film. As a final note, maybe releasing a film about a dysfunctional couple trapped in an apartment during an actual worldwide pandemic might've been a bit of bad timing?

This was such a good movie, from start to end! A true love between these two who were never meant to be apart...I don't get the bad reviews, stating high ratings were fake...well not for me, this was great!

Two people in the middle of a divorce struggle to survive a nuclear strike in L.A. it is so dumb, and they make so stupid decisions, that I kept hoping everybody in the movie died. Don't waste your time.

A really clever premise for a film. It's incredibly hard to write a film where only a few characters are stuck in one location, and Night Into Day is overall successful in keeping you engaged. I liked the opening and the montage showing the couple's creation and destruction - it reminded me a bit of that sequence in "Up." I could see an alternate world version of this film where Artemis, a supporting character, was the main character. His journey and arc is compelling and the actor playing him was very sympathetic. Ben Hall did a great job directing - even though the film is mostly shot in a studio apartment, the visuals never get repetitive. As the story and drama are solid, this is certainly worth a watch.

Wow, this is a timely movie. Wrapping a romance plot around a nuclear strike. Sounds crazy but I think it works. And works well. Ben Hall does a nice job as Director telling the story. Acting is pretty good. It is worth a watch. And yes, it has some twists so keep watching. I recommend.
