Dark City Ratings & Reviews
- Thomas KearneyMarch 13, 2026It was actually an o k
- Daniel GustavssonOctober 12, 2024Incredible movie with one of the best atmospheres ever. The cast is fantastic and so is the story.
- HyperTendenciesMarch 3, 2026Criminally underrated! Wish I discovered this sooner. It has absolutely no business being this good.
- Billy ZaneJanuary 10, 2025Make sure you watch the Director’s Cut and it’s best to just go in totally blind. Don’t read any reviews and you’re in for a wild ride.
- George BananzaFebruary 17, 2026No more Mr. Clean.
- randyanderson685August 10, 2025All I'm going to say is don't thank just watch it
- NotoriousEdgeNovember 2, 2025A beautifully done movie that’s both weird and fascinating. Jack Bauer’s performance is very distracting though.
- Richard GobinSeptember 26, 2025One of the best, if the best science fiction movie out there. When I first saw Dark City I was blown away by the plot and the characters. A well made film and classic.
- sopulaMay 29, 2025Fantastic sci-fi story, somewhat goofy execution. The first 40 minutes was not very enjoyable
- PetreliciousJanuary 7, 2026Such an underrated science fiction movie! Have to watch the directors cut!
- paisleyboxersMay 24, 2025Solid watch, beautiful cinematography, flawed CGI, great premise. It could have been a lot smarter but as a cult watch I will watch again and again.
- Neale FouldsNovember 24, 2025The strength of the movie is the story, and the final twist. Added to this the dystopian mood of the setting and you have a timeless statement. Let down only by the special effects, which pre-date the digital effects revolution, you wonder if a modern remake would outshine the original, I'm left thinking ... I doubt it!
- MrPokeOctober 22, 2025Overrated movie with some really bad acting and dialogue. But the atmosphere, William Hurt, and the Cenobite-wannabes make it an ok watch.
- Harvinder SinghSeptember 14, 2025Remember John, Never talk to "STRANGERS"
- bedw60September 8, 2025I love this movie. Suspensive full and intriguing. Special effects are awesome!
