Review of Dark City (1998) by John H — 01 May 2011
As far as sci-fi archeatypes go, Dark City is unique and very intriguing. The visuals in this movie are not to be missed. Ardeco sets mixed with grandiose scales of buildings and architexture create a sense of intriquite hopelessness.
Not to mention the dark, gloomy cinematograpy that truly carries the direction of the film. That being said, the writing could have been much better. Characters and sub-plots are added very frequently and more than a few times the viewer has to stop and catch their bearings on the story.
Wildly elaborate but truly remarkable, a must see for any sci-fi fan!
