A dark film, indeed

Rating: Null/10 (7 May 2004)

This was an odd movie (Patrick Swayze? Noah Wyle?) but it all comes together. "Darko" is a good name for the character because the story as well as the visuals are dark. If you tried to explain it to someone (uh..there's this big rabbit...) it wouldn't make sense. The film has a mystery feeling to it, and each scene just adds to it, and sometimes I didn't know what it all meant. But the ending was a surprise, and everything added up, with a great visual. The music is truly haunting. The photography has a dreamy quality to it, which adds to the tone. It's not a feel good movie, but there's nothing wrong with that. Worth a rent if you're into twisting storylines and dark themes.
