Critics Consensus

Dark Crimes is a rote, unpleasant thriller that fails to parlay its compelling true story and a committed Jim Carrey performance into even modest chills.

Love this film. It is a commentary on sex trafficking and the very real crimes that go on daily within the sex industry and drips down into everyday life in families as sex abuse. Watch if you want to understand the world you live in a little more. 5/5 10/10

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Some how a bit interesting. But the sound is bad, and the storyline is stupid.

Extremely misogynistic movie. Surprised Jim Carrey would take a such a callous role where he climaxes while physically abusing a woman who's been trapped in the sex trade for years. Oh. But she turns out to be a murderer of her abuser, so it's fine. Everybody bad.

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

Sorry to say, 1,5hours I never get back. Slow movie where the plot is all too obvious. Static scenes and a lack of logic in the characters reasoning and actions. A few moments where Jim shines in his characters demise, but it is rare...

Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars

Owen Gleiberman

Variety

The film's pace never deviates from its hushed, deliberate, anticipatory gaze - it's stuck in thriller-foreplay mode.

Observer

The screenplay teeters between depraved and confusing ("Truth is what you make it. Reality is perception.") Say what?

Rated: 1/4

Richard Roeper

Chicago Sun-Times

Source material with great dramatic potential. Talented director and screenwriter. Intriguing cast. That's a promising menu - but the end product leaves a sour taste.

Rated: 2/4

Cineuropa

This production pudding is so artificial that it is hard to believe any of the characters, save for Gainsbourg's.

It's very rare for a film to pretty much have no redeeming features about it, but Dark Crimes is essentially impossible to recommend beyond those who have a morbid curiosity.

Rated: 1/5

There's not even much novelty in seeing Carrey play so aggressively against type in this oppressively artless slog.
