I cannot understand why this thoroughly likeable feature film received such scathing criticism from the critics of the time. In my opinion, the bad rating here at imdb is also undeserved. It may well be that a broad audience only finds feature films good if they are entertained in the most noisy way possible. Then "All Night Long" is of course the wrong film. But if you want to see an intelligent and somewhat reserved comedy with excellent acting, you won't be disappointed.
I liked the gentle satire on the world of work. The film also gives an apt look at life. And I enjoyed seeing Gene Hackman in a completely different role.
