Plot Summary

Dr. Peyton Westlake (Liam Neeson) is on the verge of realizing a major breakthrough in synthetic skin when a gang, led by the sadistic Robert G. Durant (Larry Drake), obliterates his laboratory. Burned beyond recognition and altered by an experimental medical procedure, Westlake attempts to rebuild his laboratory and reestablish ties with his former girlfriend Julie (Frances McDormand). But his most challenging task lies within himself. Torn between his desire to create a new life with Julie and his quest for revenge, the man known as Darkman begins to assume alternate identities in this stunning, fast-paced action thriller from director Sam Raimi.

Top Critics' Reviews

Rotten: Darkman sustains mild interest throughout, but it never takes off, partly because a real-estate scam, gangland shootouts, city corruption and a love story clutter up the sad story of Westlake's strange mutation. – Caryn James, New York Times, Jul 16, 2008

Fresh: Raimi's live-action comic book aims to deliver scares spiked with laughs. That it does. – Peter Travers, Rolling Stone, Jun 4, 2007

Fresh: Raimi isn't effective with his actors, and the dialogue lacks smart menace, but his canny visual sense carries many a scene. – Richard Corliss, TIME Magazine, Jun 24, 2010

Fresh: Despite occasional silliness, Sam Raimi's Darkman has more wit, pathos and visual flamboyance than is usual in contemporary shockers. – Variety, Jul 7, 2010

DARKMAN IS BRILLIANT!!

raimi and neeson!! great story, plot, actors, and directing. get it!!

Grim. Pointless, Terrible

This movie has the dubious distinction of being the only movie I paid to see at a theater and actually had to walk out halfway through. It was that bad. Darkman is a thoroughly depressing story about a man getting back at those who hurt him, killing them off one by one in progressively more creative and more gruesome ways. If pointless, mean-spirited revenge movies are your thing, however, then maybe this film will work for you.

u people have no taste

this is one of the best "super hero" movies there is, but since u guys have no life and the only thing u can do is give bad names to these movies... if ur interested rent it but id reccomend buying it tho...
