Leave your thoughts about Darkon.
| Austin ChronicleNora AnkrumYou won't leave this film with a full grasp of, say, how a Darkonian knows when he's mortally wounded, but you'll relate to this exuberant subculture more intimately than you'd perhaps expect. |
| Chicago TribuneMichael EspositoThere are lessons to be learned here, not the least of which is that you should never trust elf mercenaries, no matter how much you pay them. |
| VarietyEddie CockrellA clear-eyed and oddly touching docudocu about a gaggle of Baltimoreans who dress up in home-made medieval garb and chase each other around soccer fields and meadows. |
| Flick FilosopherMaryAnn JohansonFirst-time documentarians Luke Meyer and Andrew Neel avoid what might have been the obvious tact here of making fun of these folks, which is a treat... |
| New York TimesJeannette CatsoulisEloquent and occasionally touching, Darkon is haphazardly photographed but unfailingly generous toward subjects who exhibit an astonishing degree of self-awareness. |
| EmanuelLevy.ComEmanuel LevyFor all its hipster appeal, it's hard to imagine anyone who would not be charmed by this ode to nonconformity, a humanistic, thoughtful, and entertaining film that won this year's SXSW Film Fest's Audience Award. |
| The Tyee (British Columbia)Dorothy WoodendIt might sound ridiculous, and occasionally it is, but there is also something deeply moving about people's desire for experience that is bigger and more thrilling than ordinary life. Valour! Passion! Glory! Giant foam swords! |
| Village VoiceAaron HillisEmpowered as they are, it's hard to take this motley crew seriously when they spit medieval maxims with soccer goals in the background, but the filmmakers approach their subjects with humanity. |
| New York Daily NewsJack MathewsThere should be plenty of material here. But all we see are average men and women looking for an escape from their boring jobs and disappointing home lives. |
| User ReviewMichael EI found this to be a wonderful non-exploitative documentary on LARPers (Live Action Role Playing) and how it corresponds with their real lives. This documentary touches base on escapism, self-identity and interesting enough their take on their roles in real life in comparison to Darkon (LARP). |
