Night Catches Us (2010) is a movie I recently watched on Tubi. The storyline follows a man who returns home to his neighborhood after his father passes away. He wants to help his family fix-up the house but quickly comes to the realization he isn't wanted around by his former friends or family. There is one single mother who appreciates who he was and who he is and together they try to overcome some of their inner demons. This movie is directed by Tanya Hamilton (The Chi) in her directorial debut and stars Kerry Washington (Scandal), Anthony Mackie (Avengers), Ron Simons (27 Dresses) and Tariq Trotter (Yelling to the Sky). The storyline for this picture is very interesting and fun to watch unfold. There's numerous mysteries of each other's pasts for the two main characters that keep the audience intrigued. The acting is very good as is the cinematography, settings and backdrops. The character interactions also have the appropriate level of intensity. Overall, this is far from one of the best movies in this genre but is still worth a viewing. I'd score this a 6.5-7/10.
