Review of Dark Matter (2008) by Karina H — 19 May 2010
Interesting account of actual events concerning a Chinese physics student Liu Xing (Liu Ye) who arrives in the states under the supervision of the great cosmologist professor Jacob Reiser (Aidan Quinn).
Soon we are shown the brilliance of Xingâ??s mind and his scientific breakthrough in the study of dark matter. His discovery doesnâ??t sit well with his professor and this leads to an unanticipated wall Xing must try and break down.
There was a real nice quality to this film and I was kept interested in where the story was heading. Liu Ye played the lead character extremely well in a totally believable performance. Quinn was his usual self and the university benefactor (Meryl Streep) who befriends Xing gives us a gentle caring performance.
All in all a well put together little movie giving us some insight on the events that unfolded.
