Enjoyable enough, and reminded me of Zulawski's 'The Third Part of the Night. It's decently filmed and somewhat interesting but, I kind of found the whole thing a bit bizarre. Pretty bad acting and Kiefer's character was so cartoonish and the way he spoke drove me insane; I...must...take....a...breath...after....every...word, like Stevie from Malcolm in the Middle. And let's not forget the least intimidating and scary villains ever, just bald freaks. Listen, it is pretty decent, but not great.

Maybe in the 90s these aesthetics were interesting. In 2021, sort of boring. Besides some superficial questioning about the relationship between memories and identity (another not terribly original idea), this movie is quite disappointing. Plus is full of logical holes. Don't waste your time...

The Dark City always kinda lived in The Matrix' shadow but it's a good movie on its own. It really has its own thing going on, and the oppressive atmosphere works quite well. The finale is a bit too silly for me but other than that it's solid.

Dark City consistently delivers atmosphere and a creepy aura of mystery, but I wasn't convinced that it's puzzle pieces fit well enough to make for a very satisfying movie.

Really cool. Loved the vibe, loved the energy that this movie constantly gave off. It's at one time philosophical and visually endearing to look at. It might go on a few minutes longer than it should and some of its plot is more convoluted than a Blade Runner, for instance, but still a memorable movie of this style.
