Mike Mendez on DARKMAN

Sam Raimi's big-league breakthrough maintains the high-energy kick of his Evil Dead franchise while boasting a notably higher gloss—fortunately it doesn't kill the fun. A mob hit leaves scientist Liam Neeson at death's door but he finds salvation in an experimental drug—side effects include super-strength, Wile E. Coyote’s resilience, and accelerating psychosis. Call him Darkman. Frances McDormand plays his true-blue girl friend. The script was by Chuck Pfarrer and the Raimi Brothers, Sam and Ivan.
