Ed Travis Cinapse 11/02/2018
Never losing its dramatic heft or breaking too far away from street-level gritty realism, Darkland takes audiences on a relentless descent into revenge. Go to Full Review
Siddhant Adlakha Birth.Movies.Death. 09/26/2017
If anything, it's a warning of inevitability, using its bilingual, black-clad symbol of vengeance as an ugly personification of where we're headed if we don't stop to examine where we are. Go to Full Review

Ian R Oct 26 Okay, but there are plenty of better films with a vigilante justice theme. Being set amongst an Arab community in Copenhagen is perhaps the film's best attribute. Dar Salim is quite good as the film's central character. But like the title of the film, it is shot in the shadows and is literally quite dark. See more 04/30/2018 great story on refugee assimilation - this one in Copenhagen - well drawn and produced! See more 12/27/2017 Underverden reprend les bases du film de vengeance mais grâce à une mise en scène particulièrement réussie et un excellent jeu d'acteur de Dar Salim, parvient à rendre le tout très efficace. See more @Brent_Hankins_critic 09/14/2017 Despite following a tried-and-true formula about an upstanding member of society driven to violence after the death of a loved one, Darkland nevertheless feels fresh enough to be worth a look. The shimmering, neon-lit city makes for a gorgeous backdrop, and the cast deftly shoulders the emotional weight of the narrative without skimping on the action that audiences will be looking for.
