One night, 18 year old Lena is bitten by Louise, leader of a female vampire trio that are as deadly as they are beautiful. Her newfound vampiric lifestyle is a blessing and a curse at the same time. At first, she enjoys the limitless freedom, the luxury, the parties. But soon the murderous blood lust of her comrades in arms proves too much for her, and she falls dangerously in love with Tom, a young undercover cop.

Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.

Wonderful character development!

Teddie Blake

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

I didn't know this was a German movie, but it became painfully obvious when I heard the English dubbing. I was a bit put off by this and the expectations went really low; perhaps that is why I enjoyed the movie more than I thought I would.There are a lot of clichés about vampires they used in the film, like the crazy nightlife, the club music soundtrack, the moody "Oh I lived too long" looks and desperate attempts to enjoy a life of death, the good vampire, the corrupter, etc. However all of these worked really well. The vampires were all girls, good looking ones at that, and they were as ruthless as they were good looking.The script was basically the one from Interview with a Vampire, only with chicks, and it did its job. The music was, I think, very well chosen, making the difference between liking and not liking the film. The acting was mediocre, but not annoying.After so many attempts to reinvent the genre, this film was actually vampire classic and I appreciated that. I have seen so many pretentious Hollywood films that were a lot worse than We Are the Night. Not a masterpiece, but if you like vamp flicks, this one is one of the good ones.

This is a misleading film. This isn't a horror at all, it's more a drama taking place in a vampire world. There isn't really any biting going on or an amount of red stuff flowing. And that's why so many vampire lovers will tear this flick down. Because it's low on everything. Sure, they all look sexy especially Charlotte (Jennifer Ulrich) but somehow it doesn't work. look, when they are at an inside swimming pool and ask the boys to join. You can see what is coming and yes one girl take of her top to reveal her tits toward the guys but not for the viewers. You are left with a hunger. And there's a lot of dancing going on in the nightlife. I can take it once but always going to that place were in fact nothing is happening...except for the music itself. There's one scene were the vamps go wandering around and are driving their cars on Nightlife from IAMX. Being a fan of IAMX that was a nice surprise and you can hear the whole song. But be honest, it's a bit like Twilight, a bit like Romeo and Juliet. The forbidden love between a human and a vampire. Jeaulousy between the vampires, lesbian love between Louis and Charlotte, you could see the fight coming between them. Maybe I'm missing something that I didn't see, what is worth watching is the fight between both of them for the effects but by then it's too late. It's was a long night...Gore 0/5 Nudity 0/5 Effects 4/5 Story 3/5 Comedy 0/5

In We Are The Night, a girl, Lena, living on the street and stealing catches the eye of a vampire queen, Louise. Louise is always looking for her soulmate and thinks she can identify her by looking at her eyes. Her previous conquests were Nora a fun young girl and Charlotte a classy girl.Also catching the eye of Lena is a cop looking to arrest her. But Lena outsmarted him and he fell for her. One night Lena is turned into a vampire by Louise and joins the group. The girls, immortal and rich, just live a life of fun, pleasure, and games. They race exotic cars in the city at night, go shopping in a mall all for themselves, dance in their club. Despite this life of opulence, Lena isn't all that thrilled about consuming blood and killing people. She does enjoy the powers of a vampire- super strength and the ability to defy gravity. But the cop doesn't give up and tries somewhat successfully to seduce her.This will lead to the cops getting on the trail of the vampire clan, which was responsible for massacring some mobsters.We Are The Night is a great title for a vampire movie, and the movie is also great. Unlike 95% of vampire movies in the last 15 years, it's not offensive to fans of the genre. It's a real cool, very stylish, and erotic vampire movie full of fantastic actions scenes. This day and age it's harder and harder to impress with action scenes but this movie does it. And the vampires, crawling, walking, and fighting on walls and ceilings looks excellent. The cast is outstanding. Nina Hoss' Louise in particular is very interesting, she's mature but attractive and has something animalistic about her. Anna Fischer's Nora is innocent, fun, playful, yet vicious. Jennifer Ulrich's Charlotte is distinguished and classy, she likes to smoke using cigarette holders and read books but is very deadly when necessary. This movie features the nastiest paper cut ever. Direction is first rate and the locations in and around new and old Berlin are quite unique.But unfortunately, We Are The Night has to take the moralistic turn 3/4 of the way into it. That's when the "good" guys catch up with the "bad" guys and you know the outcome. The editing cold have been better. The ending still is surprising and interesting but vampires have always been the more interesting and sympathetic characters than the regular and boring humans. This movie should turn into a franchise, not sure how, but fans of vampire movies deserve a We Are The Night II.

This film is about a young woman who got turned into a vampire after a female vampire bit her in the neck."We are the Night" is such a weird movie. The plot centres on four vampires, who are immortally young and beautiful. Their hedonistic lifestyle is abundantly portrayed in the film, involving much sex, drugs and partying. The lesbian love featured is intense, and provides a constant undercurrent of lustful tension. It is a cult movie that is probably not for everyone. As a brainless pastime, "We are the Night" is passable. Just don't analyse the contents of the film, and accept what you see on the screen.
