TCFF 2015 Movie Review 5: Dark Places

Dark Places

Gillian Flynn was never an interesting writer to me, I vaguely know of her books but other than Gone Girl none of them have been that interesting to me.

Dark places is just another murder mystery. One that seems a little too run of the mill than normal Traverse movies. After the movie I realized I wasn't all that engrossed in the characters. Every character did things because of money. They all broke character just for some shock value near the end and overall im just a bit disappointed in the way in unraveled.

Charlize Theron was good acting wise but she looked a bit too clean. Hell even Nicolas hour was a bit dirtier than her. All the rest of the actors weren't all that amaZing, it felt a bit cheap

Gone Girl worked very well because of the Director. This one just fell flat because of it.

Final Verdict: 64
