Geoffrey Macnab Independent (UK) Loraine directs at a very brisk pace but you can't help but feel he could have made his points more effectively in a documentary. Rated: 2/5 Feb 27, 2015 Full Review Peter Bradshaw Guardian Effectively an amateur feature film produced to professional standards - more or less - and directed by a former BA airline pilot called Tristan Loraine. Rated: 1/5 Feb 26, 2015 Full Review MaryAnn Johanson Flick Filosopher Would-be conspiracy thriller undermines its own noble intent - to get the word out about a real-life problem with toxic air on commercial passenger jets - with its amateurism and dull, plodding earnestness. Oct 25, 2020 Full Review Allie Gemmill CineVue Unintentional jocularity and hollowness plague a script which attempts to construct dialogue full of technical terminology that also sounds appropriately urgent but it completely implodes in delivery. Rated: 2/5 Apr 4, 2019 Full Review Stefan Pape HeyUGuys This tale is without the sufficient dramatic potential to work as a feature length film. Rated: 2/5 Mar 9, 2015 Full Review Read all reviews

Bahad j This idea of ​​the filmmaker made the movie more accessible to more people. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/06/24 Full Review Rigsby M I tried to engage with this but gave up just alfter half way. Poor script and dialogue and the cast struggle with both. This clunky dramatisation of a true story fails to get off the runway. Give it a miss. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 10/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Ultimately, ‘what she said' - https://cine-vue.com/2015/02/film-review-a-dark-reflection.html … Allie's review succinctly captures my thoughts on the movie. I would also mention that the camerawork is diabolical, with shots constantly blurred as much as they are in focus, and the never ending jostling of the camera itself, making for an extremely amateur feel, as well as being bloody distracting! Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member The subject matter of this film is important so it is a shame that it was for me very dull and boring. It completely lacked any tension or suspense (despite having somewhat dramatic background music) and I struggled to make the effort to see it to the end. The screenplay was clunky and some of the acting was unconvincing. It's not the worst film I have seen lately but all in all it was a waste of 100 minutes of my life. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Unsure of what to expect this film delivered an excellent expose done as a documentary inside of a thriller the premise being an expose acted out in script form by a great non-celebrity cast. This is not some old airline problem but an industry-wide threat to anyone who flies. Now. It has an almost 80'-like canvas and aura about it and is most definitely pure British cinema. The one outstanding thing it left us is the very real consideration as to just WHAT ARE WE breathing whilst on airplane flights? It has succeeded in making its point in an excellent format. Bon voyage - or not. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Brilliant, understandable stroyline on a real life problem Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Read all reviews
