Day Shift

Shift looks and feels low-budget, from its slapdash effects to its sketched-in script, though that also feels like kind of the point: It might be bright daylight, but it's always midnight-movie time somewhere.

High concept, high fun.

With stuntman J.J. Perry behind the camera, Day Shift is a killer upgrade to vampire lore and a damn good time.

...a successful directorial debut for long-time stunt coordinator J.J. Perry. It isn’t a revelation, but it’s mirthful and violent and feels like everyone involved had fun making it while taking their jobs seriously.

Fun performances from Jamie Foxx, Dave Franco, and Snoop Dogg buoy this hangout-movie buddy comedy.

...unexpectedly focused, consistent pleasure...

...a lighthearted summer action movie.
