Critics Consensus

In Darkness blindly stumbles through routine thriller antics, supported by a steady Natalie Dormer, but not much else.

Once it was over I liked this film. But while viewing it, I always felt a scene behind in the quickly moving plot. Names were so foreign to me that it was difficult to figure who is who.

Better than expected. Great acting by Natalie Dormer. Loved plot twists, though some are hard to understand.

My favorite genre. Very well done. Well paced, acted and scripted from start to finish. Can't say much more without ruining the plot. Myst watch for yourself.

A film that had showed great potential, but couldn't stick the landing at the end.

Thriller denso di avvenimenti e di cambi di schieramento; in cui si fatica a seguire le volontà e le posizioni dei personaggi principali. Natalie Dormer si trova ad interpretare un ruolo molto complesso, e se la cava molto bene a differenza dei suoi colleghi. Forse qualche intrigo in meno avrebbe mantenuto la trama più credibile; senza l'aggiunta dei "soliti" conflitti governativi con la Russia. Sarebbe invece servita qualche spiegazione in più sulle intenzioni e sui comportamenti degli altri personaggi.

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

It feels like three long seasons of quality television squashed into one savagely overstuffed cinematic piata.

HeyUGuys

A talented cast and a handsome sense of time and place can't save this thriller from being caught in a cliche-ridden and uninspiring undertow.

Rated: 2/5

This initially promising blind-woman-in-peril thriller soon loses its way.

Natalie Dormer gives a passionate performance in a thriller with a moody style but not many interesting new ideas.

The final reveal may have you scratching your head, but damn if [Anthony] Byrne and [Natalie] Dormer don't pull it off with aplomb.
