Nightwatch: I bought this based purely upon a couple of reviews, and the trailer. What I was expecting was a good action film, with some impressive stunts, What I got was a film that seemed to take all it's mystical background, and a fair amount of the backing story, from Buffy the Vampire Slayer (I kept thinking of the Watcher's Council). The image was aided by the fact that, in one scene, a character is watching the Dracula episode of Buffy.

It's actually not a bad film. The dubbing is a little distracting (and actually doesn't match with the subtitles), and the story is actually allright. There are a few absolutely stunning scenes, but in general, I wouldn't have bought it if I had seen it.
