The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

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.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Watch this if....you want to see a moving about people figuring themselves out. This was billed as more of a serial killer type film, but has a surprisingly very strong romantic theme.Acting/Casting: 5.5* - Danny Glover is solid in the lead role and gives a good performance. I have never been a Michelle Rodriguez fan and this movie didn't change my mind. Pam Grier is okay, but should stick to playing a role with a gun in her hand. The remainder of the cast does a very nice job in their supporting roles.Directing/Cinematography/Technical: 7* - I felt the one thing that this film did very well was that it captured New York. The viewer really gets an idea of what New York is all about and the movie has a good flow to it. In my opinion, this area is the strongest aspect of this film.Plot/Characters: 5* - A non-committal romantic, an immigrant hoping for a better life, and a woman scarred by her past ghosts play cabbies in New York city. The sub-plot is that there is someone killing cab drivers on the graveyard shift and he is still at large. It is nothing new and an average plot.Entertainment Value: 6* - It manages to entertain, but don't expect your typical serial killer movie. This movie is much more about these individuals finding themselves than a thriller. I'm glad I watched it, but probably won't have the desire to again.My Score: 5.5+7+5+6 = 23.5/4 = 5.9Email your thoughts to [email protected]

This is a somewhat cold and dark look at the trials and tribulations of NYC streets after dark. Cab drivers keep working despite the fact a serial killer is on the loose and is targeting cabbies. Story line and script a bit rough, but it gives you the feel of reality. This movie gradually grabs your interest and holds on tight. Danny Glover plays a former pro basketball player turned cab driver. A very good performance as usual. Playing his love interest is Pam Grier, a waitress in a diner. Flawless job turned in by Ms. Grier; and she is still a looker. Supporting cast includes Michelle Rodriguez, Paul Calderon, Sergej Trifunovic and Fisher Stevens. Cameos by Spike Lee and Walt Frazier.

"3 a.m." shuttles between a half dozen characters having to do with a struggling NYC cab company and a diner frequented by some of the drivers during the reign of terror of a cabby killer. A confused and unsatisfying watch, "3 a.m." is a jambalaya of people and circumstances which, for the most part, are uninteresting, poorly developed, and lacking in cohesion. Pass on this one.

Interesting slice of life from a young director. Saw this at Sundance and thought it looked and felt like a Spike Lee joint - he produced. Grier and Glover don't quite have the chemistry you'd hope for and some of the characters are a little shrill and bleak - but worth seeing anyway. I loved the bit part Melanie Torres had. I'd like to see more of her - vavavoom!
