The story is characterized by themes of female empowerment and personal growth, though opinions vary on its execution. While some praise its clever twists and engaging characters, others criticize the lack of chemistry between key characters and a disappointing conclusion. Overall, the narrative is seen as entertaining but inconsistent, with a mix of strong performances and a somewhat weak storyline.
“The story of this tragic tale is one of female empowerment and rising above the circumstances of your birth, and that is something that can help many people in this world.”
“After the Sunset may not be one of Pierce Brosnan's most well-known films, but it is a very clever story with unexpected twists and turns throughout.”
“With many plot twists and turns, After the Sunset is a fun movie to watch, and full of surprises until the very last scene.”
“I would be willing to forgive plot deficiencies if there was at least some good chemistry between key characters and some romance, but both Pierce and Woody fail to generate any heat with their respective ladies.”
“The only good parts were some cute semi-funny scenes/dialogues between Pierce and Woody - two men clumsily reaching out to each other for some old-fashioned friendship. I also hated the complete lack of even an attempt to bring the story to any sort of moral conclusion; the end is just disgusting from this standpoint.”
“This one was just a bad storyline and not well written; watch only if you've got nothing better to do.”

The music in the game has received mixed reviews, with users noting significant differences between the soundtrack on the DVD and the Blu-ray version. Many expressed disappointment over the replacement of the original score with what they described as "cheesy 90's cop drama music," detracting from the overall experience. Additionally, the main title sequence features a different font and sound effects, further contributing to the dissatisfaction with the music aspect.
“For example, the movie opens up on the DVD with the New Line logo against the soundtrack music to the film, but the Blu-ray opens up with the same New Line logo except against the usual sound effects for that logo. Once the soundtrack music does start, it sounds similar but different from the score on the DVD.”

“My first annoyance is they completely took out the soundtrack from the DVD and replaced it with some cheesy 90's cop drama music.”
“Adding to this, the font of the main title sequence is different from that of the DVD, and some of the soundtrack music isn't the same as the DVD.”
