A Dark Place Reviews

[Andrew] Scott here fascinates as a vulnerable yet remarkably resilient odd duck.

| Mar 24, 2020

If it had simply lived in its mystery... than I think it would have been a more powerful movie.

| Sep 27, 2019

The film, alas, despite [Andrew Scott's] best efforts, is dramatically inert and riddled with plot holes.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Apr 22, 2019

It's the chemistry between Scott and his female co-stars that makes Steel Country worth a look.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Apr 21, 2019

Scott is the most persuasive element in a film that is atmospherically photographed by Marcel Zyskind but let down by a clueless screenplay which borders, at times, on the risible.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Apr 21, 2019

Donny Devlin, a socially awkward garbage collector in a Pennsylvanian backwater, could have been a great Scott character if the writing and direction were more up to snuff.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Apr 18, 2019

Steel Country's ambition often exceeds its grasp, but is valiant in its attempts to confront societal issues through a solid mystery plot - even if Andrew Scott's performance threatens to unbalance it.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Apr 18, 2019

This is a perfectly decent premise for a procedural thriller and Scott does his best to sell it. But some of the plot turns are preposterous and gibberingly ridiculous.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Apr 18, 2019

"A Dark Place" is earnest enough, but it comes across as phony. It's hard to do a "local color" drama when everyone's from out of town.

| Apr 12, 2019

A conventional murder mystery with an unconventional lead character.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Apr 12, 2019

Scott's strong, startling performance is the most effective element of Simon Fellows' offbeat crime thriller.

| Apr 10, 2019

The result is diverting enough, yet ends up more a mildly offbeat time-filler than something memorable.
