Great script, terrible casting of everyone except the Strangers. Whatever you do, don't watch the theatrical. The editing is so much worse and they spoil the whole film in the first five minutes.

An underrated supernatural thriller with a noir touch, "Dark City" plays with your mind as much as the bizarre Strangers play with the characters' memories, as well as the world around them.

Dark City is one of the best neo-noir films ever. It combines the dark, dystopian vision of "Blade Runner" with some cinematic nods to past films of the 1930's and 40's. The film crafts an intriguing, detective story plot, while still concluding with a glimmer of beauty and hope (That last scene is iconic.)

Overlooked and underrated. Visionary sci-fi elements mixed with a great unfolding mystery. Director's cut adds more and is a better version of the film, in my opinion.

Dark CIty is a unique sci-fi. The filming is very dark and really adds to the overall mystery of the movie.

At first i thought that this movie ripped off the Matrix but then i learned that it came out before the Matrix. It didn't hurt that Kiefer Sutherland. It also didn't hurt that the plot was ingenious and that the special effects were out of this world.

A beautiful, well written and directed movie wit the only problem being the music. It is a continuous tone that never really slows or speeds up. The cinematography, while dark, is groundbreaking and I have never seen anything since. See it!

Dark and mysterious, with nothing as it seems. Dark City is like a precursor to The Matrix - major differences, but the similarities are hard to ignore. This is one you have to watch a few times to get, but it's a good sci-fi adventure.

Dark City is one of a kind. It is one of the best sci-fi movies ever made.If you like sci-fi movies with a bit of a mystery surrounding them this is for you. Must see.
