Excellent film

Rating: 10/10 (3 July 2000)

This movie is very unusual. It is a mixture of a classical film noir with a science fiction film. Great special effects, great acting. Despite having a rather complicated plot, it is never difficult to follow.

There are some similarities to the Matrix. Both Neo and John Murdoch save the people of the world they live in. They both have superpowers. And they are both in a world that is controlled by non-human entities. But that's pretty much where the similarities end. Despite lacking the martial-art sequences of the Matrix, I believe Dark City is a better film all the way.

This one will leave you with pleasant memories, and they will be yours to keep. Not injected into you by Kiefer Sutherland.
