After Hours is a brilliant film that is so original, so particular, that we are uncertain from moment to moment exactly how to respond to it. The style of the film creates, in us, the same feeling that the events in the film create in the hero. Interesting.

Roger Ebert

Chicago Sun-Times

After Hours is not, ultimately, a satisfying film, but it's often vigorously unsettling.
