When you start watching a movie and the 20 first minutes are boring, it's difficult to keep going. And it takes no time to notice that boring scenes just keep stretching and stretching. You want them to end, but they're there to torture you endlessly. Did not laugh a single time.

Yes, "All Nighter" (2017) is a MOVIE.ORIGINAL - it is not a remake, re-imagining, reboot - or sequel, prequel or whatever.It has no comic-book characters, video-art, SFX and aside from one well-timed punch in the face, no action.But what it does have is a PLOT, CHARACTERS - and J.K. Simmons.And he has charisma, style, that voice and that FACE.It is HE who drives this film.An odd-couple piece, where a busy businessman who has lost contact with his daughter teams up with her dopey ex-boyfriend to try to locate her (Simmons is the businessman).And so the mismatched pair spend the night cruising her haunts and friends...Simple enough - and this would only be a time-passer, were it not for J.K.At one point, a young girl describes him as "do-able" - a sentiment I can live with, given he is only two years younger than me and has the same hairstyle (none).Plus, he is one HELL of an actor.Of course, this indy movie has made no money at all - being ABOUT something - and one wonders how much longer such films will continue to be made.The answer is likely - not long.So check out this gem while you still CAN.

Film to see, I'm not saying it's the success of the year but it's pretty funny. It has nothing new, and is similar to the film of the genre certainly. But it is nice to watch, the actors are good. Sipping in the middle of the day with a nice little coffee and why not girlfriends.

Don't bother.Boring. Fake people. Could easily have been written and directed by Seth Rogen.Out-take note: At the end Hirsh is playing the banjo on stage but is fingering notes and chords outside of the capo which is further down the neck of his banjo.
