A neo-noir set in the New York City's corrupt contemporary art world where the art dealer John Kaplan and the ruthless head of New York's mafia, Michael Rubino, fight for money, art, power and love.
Reviews- Silverscreenanalysis.com: The gun-play kicks in with a self-awareness that really makes it pop. It gets bloody and elegant all at the same time and I had fun with the sporadic tones, and noir atmosphere this one delivers. The hyper-reality was tuned-in just right to create a fun escape into a violent world of maniacal villains, art, sex, and gun-fights.
- Shadowsonthewall.co.uk: Hirsch [has] fun along the way, veering wildly from thoughtful to petulant to maniacal.
- Markreviewsmovies.com: American Night portrays plenty of corruption, in the underworlds of both art and crime, and chaos, especially in its action-heavy climax.
- Flickeringmyth.com: Style, gritty suspense, and colorful characters.

A man nicknamed "The Jesuit", is imprisoned for a crime he didn't commit. When his wife is murdered and his son kidnapped and taken to Mexico, he devices an elaborate and dangerous plan to rescue his son and avenge the murder.
Reviews- Blu-ray.com: There Are No Saints is fixated on ugliness, which is a Schrader specialty, and he creates a particularly hostile world.
- Eyeforfilm.co.uk: Not for the faint-heated.
- Battleroyalewithcheese.com: A vintage cast of hard men, such as Tim Roth, Ron Perlman and Neal McDonough. Overall worth a watch if you want to see men, being MEN.
- Highonfilms.com: It is the action that truly excels. The brutality of its execution and the resultant gore enhances the gritty vibe of the movie.
- Jbspins.com: Recommended for fans of payback.
- Nightsandweekends.com: With its heavy themes and sometimes gruesome violence, There Are No Saints isn’t the typical brainless action movie. But this story of a man fighting to save his son will definitely give you a lot to think about long after it’s over.
- Slantmagazine.com: A Messy, Intoxicating Shot of B-Movie Adrenaline.
