Should be on every top 100 list

Rating: 9/10 (22 July 2010)

It's taken two watches to really get into the vibe of this film, it's almost like looking into the mind of a lunatic. Dark, foreboding and menacing, the style is reminiscent of Metropolis. Great characters, superb acting (even Sutherland shows he can act!) and a story that twists to the final scene, make Dark City not just a brilliant sci-fi film, but a true masterpiece in it's own right.
I particularly liked the 'aliens' and Richard O'Brien hardly needed make-up! And correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm sure I spotted a young Robert Webb of Peep Show fame in amongst the 'aliens' at one point, he even had a line but I couldn't find his name on the credits.
A must see.
