What the Critics say | ||
Cape Times Todd McCarthy Suffocating, terrifying tale of Holocaust survival. | 15 | |
Box Office Mark Keizer In Darkness takes its place among the many great European films to tackle the subject. Plenty of quality-seeking adult moviegoers will be lured to the arthouse and thoroughly moved. | 15 | |
Chicago Sunday Times Roger Ebert In Darkness has the best of intentions, but is a boring dirge, lingering far too long in sewers and wringing as much righteousness as possible out of scenes so dimly lit, they border on obscurity. | 13 | |
