Why it’s a Weeknight Watch

With soft box office and little lasting buzz, it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Tailor-made for people who enjoy a knot in their stomach and people who like stories about real, flawed people. One to watch when you can give it your full attention.
The mood
Tense.
The pace
Lets scenes breathe, at 1 hr 30 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
What might put you off
Not the one if you want explosions or easy laughs.

Hollywood is the cinema capital of the world - the place where dreams come true. It is associated with glamour and luxury. But for Nick, reality is very different. Years ago he was a successful screenwriter. Now he is just a dispatcher at Utopia, a Hollywood limousine company. Dispatch follows Nick from dusk to dawn on one overnight shift.
