Vivianna _ A very over-looked movie in my opinion. It's unique and overall a wonderful movie. Has this ability to take you out of this world and reel you into the movie completely. A must watch in my book! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/22/25 Full Review Pedro B This is a great and original movie. I have never see this type of history before.

The story is so well told. I hope there will be a second movie or a sequel. That would be so awesome! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/24/25 Full Review SkyRo P "The Darkest Minds" is a mythical-style action-adventure film that seems to resonate more with teenagers and young adults, offering a creative narrative and a new world that viewers can immerse themselves in. I found the film to be quite enjoyable, although perhaps not the absolute best in its genre. I would say it's a solid film that deserves more recognition than it received. Unfortunately, it struggled at the box office, which led to its premature exit from theaters, preventing it from gaining the traction needed to develop into a franchise. This film is also where my admiration for Harris Dickinson began. He really showcased his talent and delivered a strong performance, sharing the screen with Mandy Moore, who brings her undeniable charm to every role she takes on. Even in more serious moments, her presence feels warm and inviting, making her a standout in any cast. On the other hand, I believe Amandla Stenberg's performance contributed to the film's challenges. While I don’t want to label her as a bad actress, I feel that her portrayal often lacks the energy and depth that could elevate the film, especially when compared to her co-stars. This inconsistency can detract from the overall experience, even if it may not be obvious to the average viewer. That being said, I don’t think she detracts entirely from the film. She does bring necessary elements to her character, but the movie ultimately suffered from not achieving the success it deserved. I encourage you to check it out and give it a chance. Perhaps one day it will find new life on a platform like Netflix, leading to a revival or even a continuation of the story. However, it might be too late for a full revival unless a complete rework with a new cast is undertaken. Regardless, "The Darkest Minds" isn’t as bad as many have suggested, so it's worth a viewing.
