I like this type of up all night movies. I would recommend Miracle Mile for a similar vibe.

Safdie Bros entire oeuvre is doing a riff on After Hours(meant as a compliment)

Interesting. I haven't seen "After Hours" but I know "Bringing Out the Dead," "Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore" and even "King of Comedy" are all sort of masterpieces people don't even have the mental resources to quite address. It's like Scorsese made too many great movies to even track.

in my head canon, everyone survives Miracle Mile and the 2 leads are happily married, just like Anthony Edwards and Mare Winningham. No, really

“Into the night,” with Jeff Goldblum is similar. Also great.

“Invasion of the Body Snatchers” (the 1978 version, also starring Jeff Goldblum, Donald Sutherland, Brooke Adams and Leonard Nimoy) is also great, and more or less an “up all night” story (key to the film.)

Wait, was that John Landis?

“Into the night?” Yes, Directed by John Landis.

The Night Before (1988) with a young Keanu Reeves is like a teen version of After Hours
