Dark City is not a 'great' movie. It's decent, and I like it, but it is far too flawed to be great. Good ideas, poorly executed. I believe The Matrix is a better movie; better developed ideas, better made. Oh and better acting. I like Rufus, but after Dark City im just left thinking 'wtf?'. He overdoes that whole confused imaginative journey thing more than a bit too much. Err... no. This movie was terrible. Potential, for sure, but as with Dark City its poorly done. Just needs some tightening up. If it weren't for all the links to Silent Hill 3 I wouldn't have given this a second viewing at all. Oh and the prolonged visibility of nipples doesn't help the situation.
