Sam Raimi takes control of his own creation in the story of a scientist-turned masked vigilante in this wholly forgettable superhero flick. I tried to give it the benefit of the doubt in places but it kept letting me down over and over again.

Somehow, Liam Neeson stars as 'Darkman' (he must not have been very famous back... read more

Sam Raimi undertook his assault on Hollywood with this excellent action thriller, where he maintained his characteristic style brands getting both a fully commercial product and some spectacular.

Based on a screenplay by Chuck Pfarrer good that integrates elements of classical tragedy (the emotional and impossible love story between the two main characters), the horror film from Unive... read more

" The high amount of inventive filmmaking and lunacy that has gone through this film is something to celebrate. It's at times extremely goofy, but that's a part of the charm with it. Liam Neeson, at an early stage in his career, is brilliant as the title character. He manges to embrace the madness of the character with an hefty amount of heart and emotion. He also brings a certain level of gravitas to the film. The films is very outdated. The low-budgeted effects, while slightly charming, is als"
