True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

Anthony Pittore III (Shattered_Wake)

Asia Argento stars as Violaine Charlier in this 'vampire' thriller. Antonio (Guillaume Canet) is a mooch, living off his wealthier and more successful friends for everything he needs and wants. To make some extra money, he's hired by a rich businessman (Jean-Marie Winling) to track down the supposed vampire Jordan (Orazio Massaro). Moving place to place in search, Antonio meets Violaine, Jordan's sister. From there, the trouble only escalates into a new high for Antonio.Sadly, the DVD cover was more interesting than the actual film. I know, that's not uncommon, but the sexy Asia Argento wearing a cut-up latex outfit with some S&M-looking people behind her? That screams "BUY ME." Luckily, I picked it up for only a few dollars, and Asia did look particularly good. She's about the only reason to bother with this. While the premise is good and the French truly know how to make a great vampire movie. . . this simply did not work. There was, at most, ten minutes of vampires in the entire film, and the majority of it was made up Guillaume Canet's character mooching and Asia Argento's character being hot. It wasn't poorly made, just nothing special. Not entirely intriguing and I had to fight to keep attention numerous times. There's very little, if any, horror elements to the film, and it's more of a dramedy than anything else. Very little mystery, very few thrills, and nothing really great about it. Unless you're a die-hard Asia Argento fan, I wouldn't bother with this one.Final verdict: 5.5/10.

In Paris, Antoine (Guillaume Canet) is a ne'er-do-well, using all the possible tricks the get into private parties and night–clubs. He lives the nightlife, and sleeps nearby a swimming pool of a gym club. He uses the name of a mysterious man known as Jordan to get into a private party, where an old man gives him 100,000.00 French Francs, with the promise of another 900,000.00, is he gets any information about the location of Jordan. Antoine and his friend Étienne (Gérard Lanvin) chases Jordan through the Parisian night, and Antoine meets Jordan's sister Violaine Charlier (Asia Argento). Violaine is considered a weird person, who bites her lovers in the neck. Antoine gets involves in weird and dangerous situations while pursuing Violaine and her brother. Something is missing in `Les Morsures de L'aube' to be a great movie. It has a beautiful photography of the night of Paris, excellent soundtrack and the sexy Asia Argento. However, the story is very confused and the conclusion is very disappointing. My vote is seven.Title (Brazil): `Cães da Noite' (`Dogs of the Night')

Antoine De Caunes is a clever and funny TV-man who became a fairly good cinema actor. "Les morsures de l'aube" is his first movie as a director, and for me, not unforgettable. The storyline was a good start : a young nightclubber (by day, he sleeps in a swimming pool) tries any trick to go inside fashionable places. One day, he pretends to know a mysterious man called "Jordan". Another mysterious man gives him money to find this Jordan, the enquiry starts. First of all, Jordan has a sister, Violaine, played by Assia Argento. The brother and the sister are known as a scary couple, the live by night only, they bite people's neck and have weird manners... This story was not a bad idea I guess, and there is a lot of funny scenes, even some absurd situations. The photography is not bad, it looks like a long length advertising for a perfume or something. Assia Argento has a strong seduction power, Gérard Lanvin (the hero's great friend) plays as a real actor, but I'm afraid he is the only one ! When people talk, they quite don't open their mouth, the audience does not understand what they say, the best dialogs get lost by a poor or too indulgent actor direction. The end is a waste... I'm afraid that any "Buffy" episode is better than this movie. I gave it a 6/10 because I'm too kind.

This film has atmosphere, no doubt. But something is missing, I'm not so sure what. Guillaume Canet does not convince as a tough guy who goes from bar to bar. He's got a face too pretty and doesn't look like a party animal. Asia Argento however is perfect. Sure, her role is more physical, she has not much to speak in French. I knew a girl with exactly the same Italian accent, sounds nice by the way. The whole movie is nice to look at, but somehow, you don't get too much involved. The end could have been more dramatic.
