Dark Cycle

Pointless, boring 'd' rated film! Pathetic story line that fails to deliver any interest or intrigue. I can only conclude that most of the reviews on this page were submitted by the Producers/ Directors of the film, as it really is utter dross! I had read that the soundtrack was 'amazing'. This is not the case, the soundtrack is almost non existent. Also the sound quality is very poor, with some of the dialogue being too quiet to hear at times. I would rate the film as one of the 10 worst I have ever seen and can only recommend that you pass this one by and spend the evening watching paint dry for better entertainment!

Dark Cycle is a harrowing journey that is well worth taking." "The cinematography in this movie is absolutely breathtaking." "The pacing in Dark Cycle is spot-on - it never feels rushed or slow." "A deeply emotional film that explores the depths of human despair." "This movie is a true masterpiece - one that deserves to be watched over and over again." "The score in Dark Cycle perfectly complements the film's eerie atmosphere." "If you're a fan of complex, multi-layered storytelling, you'll love Dark Cycle."The themes explored in this movie are universal and deeply resonant." "Dark Cycle is a tour de force of suspense and tension." "The attention to detail in every aspect of this film is truly impressive." "A cinematic triumph that will leave you breathless."

I'm confused. This film has lots of 10/10 ratings, which is why I rented it. Cleary low budget but I don't hold that against it. However, it is at best exceedingly average. One review suggests amazing soundtrack. To me the sound is poor and music almost nonexistent. Competent acting and a slightly intriguing story but I didn't find any of it funny. I wonder if all the reviewers worked on the film... Very disappointing. I think there is some error in the IMDb system that allowed this film to score so highly without any checks. Ninety minutes of my life that I will never get back. The only reason we finished watching was so I could write an honest review.

Promising idea and could have been great. Obviously a low budget film, with inconsistent sound levels and very dodgy effects. However this, in itself, would not warrent a low rating. I enjoy watching low budget films which are so bad that they become good, but this isn't one of them.

The low rating is because the plot is incomprehensible with no clear story line. It was intriging but it ends with a 'to be continued' message so there is no pay off at the end to justify spending 90 minutes watching this film. A complete 'raised finger' to the viewer.

Finally a comment about the 10/10 reviews, as other reviews state they must be fake. Most of them repeat the same statements and have no relationship to the film I saw. Do not heed these reviews.
