It was very slow and quite boring as not much happened.. This film could of been a lot better..Even when it started to get going a bit nothing really exited happened also like another person pointed out it was quite predictable from first 10 mins of watching it. I gave it a 3 star for the effort but apart from that that's it. I've seen other films along lines of this movie and they ave been quite good.. some have started a bit slow like this one did but once it got going you realised it was worth the wait. I actually thought this was going to get going once or twice through watching but unfortunately it didn't.
Movie develops very slowly and director tried to created a suspence so that one would expect something out of the odds is going to happens but believe me you guy will be disappointed.
I could not understand what was the point of movie, an AI got nuts... i guess, but still it fails to convey the objective of AI, may be AI has fallen in love with hostage girl after watchin her body naked, or AI dont like the control and update software thats why it used the girl to kill the technition and other crewmembers, script of the movie feel out of the subject along with initial story. It was not clear what kind of help girl needed from AI, if someone goes to therapist they dont keep secrets, if someone can figure out what this movie tried to convey share with me.

I have no idea why the other reviews for this movie are so negative unless they're "planted" reviews. This was not, by any means, the worst movie I've ever seen, far from it. The plot develops slowly, but not unlike the plot for HAL 9000 in 2001 A Space Odyssey also developing slowly, with an inexorability that grows more and more disturbing as the movie progresses. I've seen plenty of movies with cheap/shoddy CGI and effects, but the effects in this movie were very well done and had a good sense of realism within the narrative. Lastly, I thought Alexys Gabrielle did a very good job of portraying her character. I've seen countless instances of actors/actresses obviously delivering lines they were uncomfortable with or simply had no idea how to do it with any degree of realism, but that is not the case here. I hope other people will give this movie ratings that are considerably more fair to the production quality that went into it.
This could have been a solid AI machine against human thriller except that it is there doesn't appear to be any cohesion between script, actor, director or editor.
In the end it plays out pretty much as you would expect.

I really enjoyed Dark cloud. I found the characters to have more depth and strength to them compared to other Horror and Sci-Fi films I have seen, which was a great surprise. Some reviews have been saying it's boring-- to me, it was the complete opposite. It has eerie Black Mirror vibes, but additional layers that remind me of solid stage family dramas. The characters have unique and grounded qualities. I find the quiet moments just as effective as the more cinematic ones. That is not easy to do. HUGE fan of the color grade. Watch on a larger screen (rather than a laptop), if possible, and turn out your lights if you think it's "too dark". SO Worth it. Overall dynamic indy.
