Night on Earth Ratings & Reviews
Slant Magazine
Derek Smith
Throughout, Jim Jarmusch playfully blurs the line between driver/passenger, servant/customer, and native/immigrant.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
Takes us to places most other filmmakers never do.

Chris Cabin
Jarmusch's most accessible exercise to date while also his least seen
EmanuelLevy.Com
Emanuel Levy
Revisiting his interest in oblique comedy, Jarmusch explores a primal relationship, that of a passenger and taxi driver, using the cab as a temporary shared world, from which one party may emerge shaken up or feeling differently about himself/herself

Almost good, but not quite there.

Beautiful color cityscapes

Mary Ann Brussat
A clever glimpse of the human condition via taxi drivers and their passengers in five different cities
New York Times
Vincent Canby
With this, his fourth commercially released feature, Mr. Jarmusch again demonstrates his mastery of comedy of the oblique.

Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
At the end, we have learned no great lessons and arrived at no thrilling conclusions, but we have shared the community of the night, when people are unbuttoned and vulnerable - more ready to speak about what's really on their minds.
Austin Chronicle
Marjorie Baumgarten
It's as though this cab ride of a movie keeps moving forward with no clear destination or purpose.
Washington Post
Hal Hinson
Unfortunately, Jarmusch's lackadaisical minimalist aesthetic and his chronic lack of energy are the only unifying elements.
Washington Post
Desson Thomson
"Night on Earth" sounds better than it turns out to be.
Deseret News (Salt Lake City)
Chris Hicks
Jarmusch's movies aren't for everyone - but for the sophisticated audience he pursues there are sometimes great rewards.
Entertainment Weekly
Owen Gleiberman
Night on Earth dawdles a bit, and a couple of the segments, notably the one in Helsinki, feel like half-baked epiphanies. Throughout, though, there are moments that catch you delightfully off guard.
