L.A. detective Harry Moseby (Gene Hackman) has problems. Missing persons and bedroom stakeouts are no match for his glory days as a pro-football player. His wife is having a not-so-secret affair.

Solid neo-noir - Night Moves review by griggs

Spoiler Alert
17/03/2025

Night Moves is a solid neo-noir, but it never quite hits the heights it’s reaching for. Gene Hackman, though, is absolutely on fire—his performance as a washed-up PI is so good he pretty much carries the whole thing. The mystery is nicely tangled, full of dodgy characters and dead ends, but the payoff doesn’t hit as hard as it should. That said, the 1970s cynicism is laid on thick, and there’s a great, uneasy atmosphere throughout. It’s a good watch, but it's not quite the classic it feels like it’s building up to.
