In moments, The Night Clerk did seem as if it had potential, but by the end, and most especially focusing on the end itself, it's very clear that any potential it may have had was, to put it politely, squandered. There are about three things that happen over the entire runtime of this movie, and all three of them have been done far better, not even "ever", but recently. Like, within the past two years at most. Because doing them better than The Night Clerk is a very, very low bar.

Final rating:★★ - Had some things that appeal to me, but a poor finished product.

Feels like a bit of a mess, does <em>'The Night Clerk'</em>.

I personally didn't feel entertained by this 2020 release. Ana de Armas gives a positive performance, though Tye Sheridan is a bit hit-and-miss. The 90 minute run time goes by a little slowly, while the story of this flick doesn't really seem all that well put together - it could've gone deeper, I feel. Or at least could have produced a more noteworthy ending.

Lastly, a less serious point, but everytime Sheridan's character said "Boy oh boy oh boy" I amusingly kept getting a memory of Dug from 'Up'.
