Dark City (Director's Cut) | Full Movie | Movies Anywhere

This is an exceptionally stylish-looking production driving a story with grand aspirations, and though flawed, like the majority of Proyas’ work, it achieves most of what it sets out to do.

The movie's design is its only redeeming feature. This is one movie which seems to have been made almost exclusively for members of a Dungeons & Dragons fan club.

The other major item of note in the film is its visual effects. From a giant clock to a city changing before our eyes, Dark City is one of the most spectacular visual effects feats to come out in recent memory.

Dark City is nearly a nightmare-fueled neo-noir masterpiece. It’s surreal, it’s odd, but it’s also remarkably creative and deserves to be seen.
