Rating: 9/10 (1 November 2016)

Saw this movie years ago by renting the VHS & watching it on my TV & would see it again in a heartbeat. I'd love to watch this on the big screen if it ever comes to the theater again. It's doubtful that will ever happen.
I'm not much of a sci-fi fan but this film stood out & captivated me. To me many modern sci-fi movies have overly convoluted plot & outrageous special effect. However, this one contained a good story & was better than "Matrix" in my opinion - it did not rely on hype or big movie stars. I was in awe of the dark & mysterious images in the film. "Dark City" did not get the attention it deserved & was definitely underrated. British actor Rupert Sewell did a fine job as the main character. Rising star Jennifer Connelly had a supporting role as his wife. Alex Proyas was ingenious in both writing & directing.
Watch "Dark City" if you ever get a chance. You'll be amazed!
