Gone Dark (2013)

Such a frustrating disappointment

Powerful

Excellent but underrated film

Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

Wall to wall violence and sexy chicks. GONE DARK is a savvy exploitation film conjuring Stanley Kubrick, A Clockwork Orange, the early Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez days, and even seems to be somewhat of a parody or homage to the TV show 24. Reminiscent of Natural Born Killers and El Mariachi, GONE DARK is bloody, brutal, violent, edgy, and unapologetically irreverent in its pushing the limits of violence, skimpiness, and all out chaos in cinema. This is a movie! Four super spies come to town hunting down their X-partner who they helped fake his death. When his little sister followed in his footsteps she was mislead to believe that they had killed him because they took the blame for it and she starts hunting them down. They only way for them to survive is to kill him and all the others and be the last one standing. To cover their tracks, the agency sends some ruthless hit men to wipe out everyone.Adopting a completely new philosophy of violence in cinema GONE DARK shows what other movies would play off screen and satisfies by giving, instead of taunting, what others would just leave up to the imagination GONE DARK shows you more than you will imagine. Instead of spoon feeding an audience savvy enough from regurgitated ideas on television to know how these characters get where they are going, GONE DARK instead shows you what happens when they show up. Treating the audience as intelligent and respecting them enough to let them put the pieces together themselves. GONE DARK will not hold your hand but throw you in the deep end.Showcasing innovative cinematography and visionary sound design with an earth shattering sound track this movie is following no paths but blazing new trails and rattling every cage along the way. An absolutely amazing ensemble cast giving ferocious and fearless performances. We are sure to see some of them rise to the top of the game. Groundbreaking on every level GONE DARK is not to be missed. Sex drugs violence and rock n roll. GONE DARK is what Hollywood is missing.

Like to give it a -10 but I can't so I give it a one just because it's the worst movie ever seen so this is the first time writing a review about a movie that sucked really bad, i mean the acting was bad the effects was horrible and the storyline sucked. Don't know what else to write how many times can you write worst movie ever I mean really. i Seen about 30 of the movie and I couldn't take it anymore but I did give it a chance but just didn't like the storyline the acting was just not there and the blood effect, Looks like it was done with Photoshop or something like that it was poorly done what else can I say, I'm just being honest here and just want to share My thoughts about this movie.

Everything from Uwe Boll (who was once called worst filmmaker of the world) is pure Academy Award Gold against this utter crap... There are not enough hard drugs on the world to make one so high, that watching this would be an enjoyable experience! I really cannot understand how the makers got any kind of financing for filming this, because I cannot imagine that anyone with a clear mind would backup this crap. Because people need to be warned and I don't want to waste any more time on this, I just copy the upper part again....

If you like seeing people getting shot and killed for cracking a joke, getting drunk then shot and killed, getting shot and killed by dope smokers because you're not stoned, chicks with boobs shooting and killing without rhyme or reason, shooting and killing police over a meaningless traffic stop, or any and all creatures getting shot and killed just for laughs ~ then this movie is for you! Unfortunately the only people who don't get shot and killed are Pascal and his cameraman in this wannabe Tarantino B- style flick.The only good thing about this movie is that Pascal finally learned how to use a camera tripod, but has yet to learn anything about microphone placement outside of his HD Camcorder. Apparently the full cast and crew logged onto IMDb to give this flick a 7.0 star rating (as of this writing). None of them wrote a review as they've yet learned how to do those things, or there's simply nothing to write about.I was initially sold on the plot. A guy fakes his death, and his sister believing her brother's dead goes looking for his killer(s). Sounds like the makings of a great movie, right? But, it's pure deception to hook as many naive movie viewers into forking up their cash. It's an old and tired ploy to support the habits of LA movie backers as they exist aimlessly, and wouldn't know the difference between a good or bad script unless their own loved ones got shot and killed.In conclusion the movie strives to blur the lines between reality and parody. As a result it gives Bike Clubs, Guns, and human behavior a bad name. It may be responsible for the next psyched-out medicated kid, playing video games and watching this drivel to go out and commit the next Columbine or Sandyhook.Message to Hollyweed: We're watching you, but not your movies. Stop praying upon IMDb and others to deceive people into watching your waste products. You already fooled us once..., and now it's time for you to get out of the business allowing people with an actual education take over and make movies that America really wants to see.
