Cem Lamb This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.
TheBlueHairedLawyer Alright, I watched Dark Storm last night and I have to say it wasn't all that great. But it doesn't deserve some of the low ratings it has, at least not the ratings that go on about how bad the acting was. It was the CGI, the exaggerated and bad lines and the abrupt ending with little explanation were the real issues.Basically the plot follows Daniel, who got into an accident at a scientific research station involving a mysterious substance called "dark matter" which is being used by the army as a weapon. Daniel finds himself able to manipulate and control the weather; he also develops telekinetic abilities that are extremely awkward and out of place in the suburb community he lives in. Daniel ends up sick and could possibly die from being "infected" with the dark matter but the army has its own sinister agenda.This movie is a victim of a low budget and overuse of CGI, not bad acting or a bad plot necessarily. For what it's worth, I really thought the story was interesting, and most of the actors/actresses really put a lot of effort into their roles. William B. Davis is my favorite actor, I've seen a lot of movies he's acted in and he's well-known for his acting as the enigmatic Cigarette Smoking Man in The X-Files, and I still think he was a great actor in this movie. I liked the soundtrack, it wasn't bad heavy metal or country, thank god.The bad script lines took away from the plot, as did the abrupt ending, but my real problem was the overuse of CGI. In some movies CGI looks good, but not in this case, it made this movie look like a cheap video game and with the budget this movie had the CGI wasn't as professional-looking as it could have been. The Canadian scenery was nice, I think this movie could've benefited from less CGI and just filming in a realistic setting.
andrew jones This slop doesn't deserve a long review,so here it goes.Bored one night, nothing good on TV saw this....you know how it goes on.Here we a have fat Stephen Baldwin putting in zero effort. I've seldom seen a more lethargic performance from any actor. It really is worth watching just to see an "actor" get away with doing so little.The story could of been of slight interest in some ways, but then so could taking the lid of a tin of paint and watching it go hard.Any tiny good points or sci- fi elements are totally ruined by Baldwins asmatic,lazy and stilted acting. Awful
Moge I had to stay up with my young son last night and thought Dark Storm looked vaguely interesting compared to the other pap on offer. No. It was the aura of car crash TV that kept me watching. A fat Stephen Baldwin acting worse than my armchair does. My word, I've never seen anyone so bad in a film. His scientist sidekick and the villain at least were professional and I could believe they were actors, but Mr. Baldwin gave the standout worst "acting performance" I have ever had the misfortune of sitting in front of. Whatever you do, do not waste an hour or two of your precious life on this utter shower of *&^%. Spend the time more fruitfully in staring at a blank wall, or cutting your toenails.
liberalgems I have to admit I watched it to the very end - barely -without falling asleep! This is not a repulsive bad movie, but an annoying one! The acting is so universally horrible, I said to myself, "I could do a better job - where do I sign-up?" This thought entered my mind so often I started wondering how much these godforsaken actors where paid for their severe lack of skills! For them it must be a thrill to know you at least made it to DVD, even if you never made to the big screen! But for the rest of us watching Darkstorm it was terribly distracting! The special effects were enjoyable and the fantasy element was interesting. It's a shame who ever directed and produced this film didn't pony-up some more bucks to get some real acting talent! This could have been a half way decent sci-fi/fantasy film!
