Leave your thoughts about Dark Water.
| DVDTalk.comScott WeinbergEqual parts quiet, creepy, tragic, and visually gorgeous, Dark Water might be one of the best movies of 2005 that nobody went to see. |
| ESplatterSteve BiodrowskiUnfortunately, the supernatural element is underplayed to the extent that the story almost became nothing more than a domestic drama. |
| Cinema CrazedFelix Vasquez Jr.Evolves from a supernatural mystery to a truly sad tragedy... |
| Palo Alto WeeklyJeanne AufmuthConventions aside the film establishes a palpable sense of suspicion and dread and manages to retain it throughout. |
| FromTheBalconyBill ClarkSalles has crafted a moody, even gothic, psychological thriller that never fails to hold the viewer's interest. |
| FilmJerk.comEdward HavensWould have been... more entertaining as an absurdist comedy about the troubles one woman will go through in order to not live in Queens, the Bronx or (God forbid) Jersey. |
| Arizona RepublicBill MullerSome may consider Dark Water too leisurely paced, but it's refreshing to see a film that doesn't shoo the ghost from a closet in the first half hour. |
| Kalamazoo GazetteJames Sanforda throwback to the urban-paranoia thrillers of the late 1960s and the early 1970s, such as 'Rosemary's Baby' and 'The Possession of Joel Delaney'... |
| Reel.comKim MorganConfined by the supposed thrills and chills of pseudo-J-horror, the film's allegorical depth remains, unlike all the ooze saturating Connelly's digs, hopelessly clogged. |
| PopMattersCynthia FuchsAlmost worse than these competing illogics, the film offers what might be the embodiment of logic, a lawyer. |
