GOOD THRILLER MOVIE
|Posted .Owned for 1 week when reviewed.I would recommend this to a friendThis is a good movie with good acting and a well thought out story line. It has you wondering sometimes just what is going on. This movie doesn’t disappoint and have you asking for more. Makes one wonder if something like this could happen without a person really knowing what’s going on. This movie is well worth looking at and making it a part of one’s movie collection. Truly worth the purchase price.

Dark City looks Superb!
Posted .The video: Has been totally remastered, including color, hue, edge enhancements and the movie overall has had the brightness adjusted to point were you can now see more of the city than ever before. Colors burst onto your screen, even when shadowed or in low light situations. I must say that New Line Cinema really went all out on every aspect, virtually eliminating all signs of grain in this newly mastered version. Sharpness is constant with sharp edges never going out of focus or giving a soft image, especially during action sequences, remaining cystal clear to the viewer. The sound in the Director's Cut is presented in 7.1 DTS-HD Master Audio sound also includes a 5.1 DTS soundtrack supporting the special features, but I want to focus in on the HD Audio included. In a single word, I want to describe this DTH-HD Master sound track, it is absolutely..... " Superb "! Equalization is perfect in the fact that you will not have to keep adjusting volume to hear dialog and then back down due to surging of the sound track. I will add this, if you have a Integra or Onkyo receiver you might want to mute the sound if you pause the film, even if you have updated you dsp via firmware, because there is a audible pop (unlike the dsp bomb) that can be heard when resuming play. I have read on other sites that this is due to the soundtrack being completed before the new dsp standards could be implemented by New Line Cinema. Overall I am very impressed with New Line Cinema's release of " Dark City " it now has a place in my top 5 Blu-Ray films in terms of Visual and Audio quality that is only matched by about 4 or 5 titles to date and in my opinion just might be the clearest 1080p movie I have ever seen and thats saying alot considering how dark this movie is.

Heady science fiction
|Posted .Tired of films that dazzle you with visual effects but are utterly forgettable the moment you stop watching? Dark City came out before similarly themed The Matrix and yet still exists as a compelling movie on its own terms. The less you know about the film going into it, the better. The special features offer great behind the scenes information. I hope that one day the director, Alex Proyas, fulfills the potential he shows in this and his previous film the Crow.

Truly a Great Film
|Posted .From the opening scene in the bathroom, you know you're in for quite the experience. Immediately you can tell the blu ray transfer of the film is far superior than the DVD version. The colors pop and the video quality in general is amazing! Those who own this film on DVD already will still benefit from purchasing the blu ray. Not only for the bu ray transfer, but the directors cut of the film as well. Dark City is truly an originally and great film. As far as Sci-Fi films go, this has to be one of my all time favorites and stands the test of time. I'd even recommend this film to those who aren't into the genre. Everyone can find something in this film to enjoy. A must own!

A Sci-fi Great From the 90's
|Posted .I was working on with a group to make a list of the best films of the 90's. This film showed up on a couple of lists and I'd never even seen it. It's a stunner with a great concept and impeccable production. Director, Alex Proyas (The Crow, I, Robot), creates an atmosphere that you can feel on your skin. Rufus Sewell doesn't get many opportunities to take the lead so he makes everything count. After viewing, I also added it to my list must see films of the 90"s.

Actually holds up
|Posted .I hadn't seen this movie in at least 10 or 12 years, but I vaguely remembered liking it. I assumed it wouldn't have aged well, but it was on sale, so I figured "why not?" Surprisingly, it holds up quite well. The blu ray includes both the theatrical version and the directors cut. and there's a trivia track bonus feature that will even point out all the differences between the two for you. The special features are generally pretty good too.
