"Whatia pleasure it isito watch Scorsese cook. The cast isia dream."-David Ansen, Newsweek
A bored, buttoned-up, button-down word processor sets out on a late-night date. He's about to become the punch line of a giant cosmic joke. Because different rules apply when it's After Hours
New York filmmaker Martin Scorsese takes a darkly comic look at his favorite city in this wild free-for-all that won him Best Director honors at the 1985 Independent Spirit Awards and the 1986 Cannes Films Festival. This tall tale of the ultimate bad night on the town offers juicy roles to Rosanna Arquette, Linda Fiorentino, Teri Garr, Catherine O'Hara, Cheech & Chong and others out hapless hero meets. Scorsese said Joseph Minion's tantalizing script was "like a Chinese puzzle." You'll howl as you put the pieces together.

a seriously twisted comedy! - 3.75 out of 5 (8/23/2004)
I suppose it's a testament to the talents of Director Martin Scorsese that AFTER HOURS got the theatrical release and acclaim that it did.
Don't get me wrong with that statement though because the movie is brilliant, but it's not an easy film to sit through. The twists and turns and the sheer horror that surrounds Griffin Dunne makes this one of the most sadistic films ever made. To further press that point, film critics have been known to give up on this film halfway through as far as not t

"WHAT A WEIRD NIGHT... OR WAS IT ALL A DREAM...? IT FEELS THAT WAY AFTER ALL... " - 4 out of 5 (11/19/2009)
By Dane Youssef
"After Hours" is a surrealistic experience. It's also one of Scorsese's lesser-known gems and as far as I'm concerned, everything the man has so much as ever sneezed on is a gem. I know that sounds very sad and slavishly faithful, (but keep in mind that the man has a great reputation for spinning cinematic gold with about everything he does). I know I sound like some kind of medication and therapy, but to that, I simply ask you all: Has the man ever made a bad movie?
