Neon Nights: The Movie
Critic
A visual feast that leaves you hungry for a better script.
While the cinematography captures the neon-soaked streets of Tokyo with breath-taking clarity, the plot feels like a retread of every cyberpunk trope from the last forty years.
Marcus Movie direction is slick, but cannot hide the hollow core of the protagonist motivations.
Soundtrack enthusiasts will find much to love here, with a pulsing synth-wave score that almost carries the weaker emotional moments.
Ultimately, Neon Nights is a case of style over substance, though what style it has!
