Day Shift

It doesn't suck *stakes Gene Shalit with a sharpened garlic bread loaf*

A dude who hunts vampires for a secret mysterious Union of vampire hunters has to hunt vampires to earn money and save his family. This is total dogshit. Sure it's got plenty of scrub vampires getting shotgunned in the face by a smug Jamie Foxx, but it's utterly insipid, obnoxious, and painful to watch. Everyone involved clearly put the bare minimum amount of effort into this straight to Netflix abomination...and it's almost 2 hours long. Avoid.

Gotta love how shameless it plays both in terms of over the top, cartoonish action and LA sunny buddy (and bloody) comedy. You can see Stahelski's touches everywhere, from the union stuff to the well-imagined action scenes. Main cast of hunters delivers all the good, villains not so much.

Story and characters are thin, but the action and humor are fun enough to make up for it. It knows exactly what it is and does a good job at it.

A buddy comedy set-up with a vampiric twist? Sounds promising! Here’s what doesn’t work: everything else, from the low-effort performances seemingly taking their cues from supporting player Snoop Dogg to the exposition-padded scenes between the action sequences, to the good-enough-for-Netflix vibe that permeates Day Shift from first frame to last.

Jamie Foxx kills vampires, Snoop Dogg helps him, Dave Franco pees his pants, besides all that, Day Shift has some great rap songs and has some awesome fight choreographies too. In short, dumb action but fun.

Nice choreographies and they managed to make many different fight styles and executions. Some of the bent in half cirque du soleil stunts were getting old, but the rest was entertaining. The lore building was interesting and while the plot was a bit generic, it was a fun enough ride, helped by cool factor. The humour was not overly humorous, some characters were bland like the family, and the nurse character felt a bit out of nowhere though

As close to a hit as has come out of Netflix's more popcorn oriented output. Foxx is fine, the plot is decent and the comedy hits often, just not very hard. Might not be the rip-roaring good time I was hoping, but it was a good time nonetheless.

good movie

Day Shift is an anomaly among modern movies. It is total B-movie shlock and it doesn't apologize for being so. I'm sure this movie had a huge budget because there are a lot of big name actors in this movie. The story and the effects were pure B-movie. I would like to see a sequel to this movie that explores the vampire hunting union. I think they had a lot of fun with that in this movie and it actually did a good job of world building. It's dumb fun and sometimes I don't need more than that.

1955: it was a parody! satire for vampire genre. like it.

While the mix of action and comedy makes for a fun and enjoyable experience, the inconsistent direction and lackluster writing hinder the film from reaching its full potential. Despite this, the solid performances from the cast and impressive set pieces make it a decent watch for fans of the horror genre.

This is an average buddy film that doesn't really bring anything new to the table. There area few good moments but to many other ones that seem forced. Overall this movie is disappointing.

Movies has good VFX and story is awesome. The director explains the story visually in a wonderful way. Visit the given site to see best animation work: https://manga18fxx.com

Netflix trash. Wish they’d let snoop really smoke some weed

I appreciate the stunt choreographer. He should direct the next Suicide Squad.

Bad, but in a somewhat good way. Snoop out here cookin vamps. It knows it's silly, but fun. 6.4 for me. You know what you're getting with a movie like this.

I know it is campy. That is also what makes it downright fun and a good time. Very entertaining. Foxx and Franco make a good comedic pair. The plot is very easy to follow, it doesn't bog itself down with lore or anything else. Just a straight up action movie with cool action sequences.

Dumb fun movie that could have maybe been more pro union I guess.

Day Shift is just one of those movies that pass the time. The fight sequences were cool, especially with the vampires that do all these crazy, impossible acrobatics, but the plot itself is not that strong. Some of the dialogue is pretty horrible and cringeworthy and there weren't many scenes that were actually funny enough to make you laugh. Dave Franco constantly pissing his pants might have been the funniest part of it, and that is saying a lot.

Nice action sequences. Fun movie for the most part except a tame, unrealistic ending sequence. Good to see Scott Adkins. Will def watch a part two---hints of which were seeded innocuously throughout this film.

Nauseatingly bad rip off of various things hodge podged together. I was fixated with Foxx's spray on hair the whole film.

I did laugh a little, had a few fun scenes and Snoop is always fun. Fight scenes had good choreos but other than that, a bit of a mess of a film and not great.

Snoop Dog stole my heart with his minigun.

The thing I've noticed about these Netflix movies is that while most of them aren't bad, they feel very low quality and low effort which makes them feel like a TV film but not like top-tier TV movies but like a SyFy channel original. This film is no exception where I kept getting '90s TV pilot vibes the whole time.

Hey, it's a step up from Soul Plane!

It's bad and lazy and bad.

Everybody involved is fun, there’s some cool rap music, and ultimately the action is inspired enough to be fun, and the comedy at the very least is not cringey and sometimes hits. I like the idea of a vampire hunter organization and sticking people on day shifts and night shifts, but it doesn’t do enough with it to be anything more than another Pretty Good Netflix Flick With a Good Cast That You Won’t Regret Watching Because You Pay For a Subscription Anyway So It Could Be Worse.

Super dumb from the start, gets worse as it runs on.

Sad to see such amazing fight choreography and an all timer big budget soundtrack go to waste on one of the dumbest movies I've seen in a while. When your best attempt at comedic relief is a dude repeatedly peeing himself then commenting on it, maybe it's time to rethink your writing abilities. Points for the fun factor, but don't waste your time watching this misshapen garbage.

The action scenes are great in scope and creativity with having highly flexible and strong vampires, giving the movie a much needed selling point. The story spends way too long on cringe comedy that it only barely remembers it has a villain and a plot. Foxx and Franco start out annoying and only becoming likeable in the end, and while Snoop does his thing, too many other elements to the movie just don't shine. Still, great action and overall decent comedy, but could have been way stronger.
