Leave your thoughts about Darkness.
| FromTheBalconyBill ClarkIt's unfortunate that the film is called Darkness because this means it will soon be relegated to the Wal Mart bargain bin next to 2003's stinker Darkness Falls. |
| International Press AcademyMichael SzymanskiThe film is dark, and a bit slowly paced in parts, but it's worth watching. |
| EricDSnider.comEric D. SniderIt's a lamentable film, a true waste of talented actresses Lena Olin and Anna Paquin, and a goofy retread of stock horror-flick devices. |
| Flick FilosopherMaryAnn Johanson[T]he only scary thing about Darkness is how shockingly inept director Jaume Balagueró is... |
| One Guy's OpinionFrank SwietekLess mystifying than incoherent, inviting more giggles than shudders. |
| CinemaBlendBill BeyrerIs it inappropriate that a horror movie is opening nationwide on Jesus' birthday? |

| TheMovieReport.comMichael DequinaToo many plot and character lapses for comfort, even in the traditionally logic-flouting horror genre. |

| Movie MetropolisJohn J. PuccioThe movie finally degenerates into a hopeless mass of mumbo-jumbo, silliness, and incoherence. |
