Nice colors and Owen Campbell is lovely, but it's clear that they got rid of whoever was smart enough to write the beginning of the movie, and the rest was written by a committee of hacks. You can just hear it: "we can't have a heretofore decent character turn into a psycho are start hacking people up halfway thru the picture!" "You wanna bet?" It really pisses you off - this is my time being so pissed I wrote a review. It feels like good people worked hard but the result is unwatchable.

Watched this movie after one of my favorite movie reviewers remarked that it was one of the best he watched last year. I gave it a try and my goodness what a tense movie this was. I know a movie will be good when I can't recall where I have seen any actor or actress. I believe when a movie houses less well-known actors the movie seems to be that much more entertaining because they are giving their best. The plot is simple to follow and the director does a wonderful job letting you know something is about to go down but when it does it goes with a bang. I loved the movie and you could do a lot worse when looking for a well-directed and well-acted thriller. Super Dark Times indeed.

'Super Dark Times' is such a wonderfully crafted intelligent film! The characters are so well observed, the script and acting are stop on and the story is dark, but extremely interesting! The film really demonstrates the craft of filmmaking in its raw essence, no need for glitter on the top for the contemporary audience! The film beautifully illustrates what my early teenage years were like, (well apart from the dark stuff, obviously!)

I suppose when you title your film 'Super Dark Times' there is a bit of an onus on you to make the film reasonably dark. What starts out as quite a simple story turns into something quite major and compelling by the end. I'm definitely glad it did too because the original route the film seemed to be heading towards would not have been memorable or interesting really at all. The way they did it though made this turn out to be a very good little flick.I quite liked the chemistry between the characters. The romance angle between the characters of 'Zach' and 'Allison' was well written and the actors did a very good job of pulling it off. Amy Hargreaves' adition to the film was also a positive one. She plays a very similar character to her one in '13 Reasons Why' and she is perfectly suited to it. Finally Charlie Tahan mildly impressed me in his role. Not always an easy one to pull off but he did it well.'Super Dark Times' isn't a game-changer in any way, but it certainly achieves what it sets out to which is to tell a simple story based around some great characters and provide a wee twist of sorts near the end. It does what it sets out to well and that's all you can ask of any film.
