While the film certainly falls short of generating the deep wells of feeling to which it aspires, primarily through its most genre-standard plot points, its voice is still striking, its characterizations memorable.

IndieWire

The result is at once accosting and strangely affirming, narrowly saved by a strong cast of performers and moody cinematography that navigate the movie’s thinner aspects and more ambiguous moments with relative ease.

Rated: B-

What becomes of someone when all their self-improvement is wiped away? Even through a thin plot, “Eat the Night” earns its noir stripes by staring into that abyss.

Eat the Night manages to make myself, a video-games-as-art skeptic, into more of a believer of its affecting power.

Not That Rob Thomas (Substack)

“Eat the Night” seems to be aiming to be a hybrid of “City of God” and “I Saw the 온라인카지노추천 Glow,” and while the ambition is admirable, it doesn’t quite have the processing power to keep running smoothly.

Rated: 2/4

Original Cin

An uneven but original French modern Hansel and Gretel story balances a conventional crime drama with a compelling story of a teenage girl finding sanctuary in a video game.

Rated: B
