- So weird yet awesome
It is hard to give this movie a star-grade yet we got to do it right? If you like some of the good older scifi movies this is definitely following that and I got to say this is as far as I know the newest movie that completely plays on the older ways of making a classic scifi!
Definitely worth watching for those who enjoy a good movie a dark night!

About Jeff Shannon's review of Dark City:
I've been a fan of this movie since I first saw it on cable in 1998.I purchased the DVD not long after, and this Director's Cut is a true "cut above."Its additional 11 minutes answers questions and fills gaps, and all-in-all provides a completely satisfying sci-fi-noir experience.This is a film best seen more than once - because once you do, you know that its characters have all the dimension they need.After all - the plot IS about humans ...

In fact, this film inspired "The Matrix". This film has great performances, great directing, great sets, great special effects, and a great plot. This is very much a sci-fi mystery with some great action scenes added into the mix. The plot is very thought provoking, and keeps you on the edge of your seat. This director's ... Read More

I bought this before watching it... it's a Jennifer Connelly thing. I would run away with her in a heartbeat.... but this is not one of her best movies. So I would would suggest renting it first. If you love it then buy it.
