Excellent, a Must See

Brilliant and touching

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

If you are like me, and have found yourself searching for hours upon hours for decent movies and have finally found some really GREAT ones in the Asian and Danish markets then you may like this movie. I LIKE subtle. I like dark. I dont like happy candyland flossy foo foo endings. I LIKE slow burners and characters that are shown with duality and characters shown like REAL people....Jim Carrey did a superb job and all of the actors backed him up with some good performances. The editing could of made some better choices, but it didnt ruin the movie Camera work and soundtrack was well done and appropriate for this movie genra. Some people complained about Jim Carrey whispering a lot. I never had a problem hearing him and I am hard of hearing. It was part of the character that he portrayed and portrayed excellently. He didn't even WALK like Carrey and often times I forgot that it was Carrey. The ending was AWESOME and un expected. I do not recommend this to the average audience. Please. Just skip it. Don't go ahead and watch it if it doesn't sound like your cup of tea then bash it. AGAIN. Reviewers seem to rate according to their tastes and not according to the work performed. I don't prefer action movies, so I don't watch them and then get pissy and call it a terrible movie. Just doesn't seem FAIR. This was a well made movie that I am sure will remain under rated.

Jim Carrey isn't funny in the Polish murder-mystery "Dark Crimes" as a determined detective on the trail of a devious killer. He has already made a fool of himself and gotten demoted to the job of a lowly records clerk. Suddenly, he believes that he has the solution to an unsolved murder. A man was killed and hogtied, and Carrey's detective Tadek has noticed a similarity between the murder and a novel written by a nihilist. Ultimately, this grim, drab-looking feature, whittled down to 92 minutes by director Alexandros Avranas boils down to an exercise in brooding with some incidental rough sex thrown in to add a note of notoriety. Carrey wears a thick beard and has his hair cut short. Tadek isn't particularly a strong character. Primarily, he is a restless cop who doesn't want to end his career sorting reports and records, and he targets the most likely suspect, a novelist named Kozlov (Marton Csokas of "The Equalizer"), who eventually admits that he is the murderer. Out of the blue, our hero learns that his chief suspect wasn't in the country when the murder was committed. "Dark Crimes" lives up to its title. Carrey looks lost in this sinister saga, but Csokas soaks up the atmosphere, and he rules the film. Unless you enjoy watching movies about losers, you should skip "Dark Crimes."

Short and sweet. I'm not watching this. It might be used possibly for terrorist torture, but not for American viewing pleasure.

Just a boring movie. The director tries to have the same cinematic feel as the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo but fails to deliver. Jim Carey pretty much plays the same character as his real life....Boring. Please Jim it's called acting. Just because you change directions in life don't think your fans want you to change the winning formula that had us liking you originally.
