Not only am I particularly guilty of this in general, but upon hearing the concept backing <I>The Darkest Hour<\/I>, I fell head over heels for what should have been a wildly original dose of ET destruction. However, perhaps test screenings didn&#8217;t go as planned, because as the film&#8217;s Christmas day release approached, its marketing campaign fizzled out, warning us of what&#8217;s to come. Is it all that bad? No, but it&#8217;s certainly not worth a promotional push especially with the high quality fare it&#8217;s going up against.<\/p>\n<p>Longtime buddies Sean and Ben (Emile Hirsch and Max Minghella) head to Moscow for a business venture, the opportunity to develop their smartphone social networking application, The Globe Trot. It&#8217;s too bad their Swedish partner, Skyler (Joel Kinnaman), decides to steal their idea and present it as his own. Now abroad and with nothing to do, the boys turn to booze and drown their sorrows in a night out. That&#8217;s when they meet another traveling duo, Natalie and Anne (Olivia Thirlby and Rachael Taylor).<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s all fun and games until the power goes out. When the partygoers head outside to investigate, they come face-to-face with the culprit, an invading alien race. The foursome and Skyler manage to barricade themselves in the club basement for the initial onslaught, but, even after emerging days later, the streets are still overrun with invaders, invisible balls of electricity with the power to turn their victims to dust.<\/p>\n<p>This is an alien invasion movie we\u2019re talking about; <I>The Darkest Hour<\/I> has had an edge the moment it was conceived. And, even beyond the mass appeal of this type of material, Jon Spaihts\u2019 script offers a number of distinctly inventive details, giving <I>The Darkest Hour<\/I> the opportunity to reach far beyond sci-fi guilty pleasure status. It\u2019s just too bad Spaihts, and perhaps his story development collaborators, M.T. Ahern and Leslie Bohem, just didn\u2019t know what to do with the ideas, or dialogue at all for that matter.<\/p>\n<p>The problems are obvious right from the start; Sean and Ben are on their way to Russia and their personalities are revealed through a painfully tacky conversation about whether or not cell phones really do interfere with the plane\u2019s equipment and the duo basically breaks down their own characters in the conversation. It\u2019s as far from subtle as possible and it\u2019s that lack of restraint throughout the first act that somewhat ruins the \u201cwow moment.\u201d Think of some of your favorite alien invasion movies. What\u2019s the best part? When the aliens first invade, of course! Well, thanks to far too much foreshadowing and little to no character development, the big arrival is rather lackluster, despite the invaders\u2019 unusual and picturesque entrance.<\/p>\n<p>That problem comes and goes, but we\u2019re stuck with the characters. Their biggest problem is that there\u2019s just nothing that special about them. Sean is the unprepared and impulsive one while Ben is the brains behind their operation. They could have made for a dynamic combination had Spaihts not forgotten their classifications. Minus the first boardroom scene, we never really see the guys shine as individuals using their character traits. The same goes for Anne and Skyler who never get past the level of them simply being girls and best friends. For the large majority of the movie, they follow Ben and Sean with their fingers crossed. The only one who manages to stand out from the pack is Kinnaman as Skyler and the reason is simple \u2013 he\u2019s the only one with a personality. Beyond him, Spaihts might as well have scrapped their names and merely labeled them guy one and two and girl one and two. (Come to think of it, their names don\u2019t even become familiar until well past the film\u2019s midpoint.)<\/p>\n<p>The script in general also suffers from a lack of definition. Rather than piece together the story with epic mini moments, everything just blends together. They don\u2019t get a real mission until about half way through the film and, even then, they\u2019re merely running around the city. If they actually achieve something, it\u2019s by sheer luck. Further tarnishing the piece\u2019s flow and pace is the fact that either Spaihts has no idea how to write a transition or the film\u2019s trio of editors are only capable of moving the story from one scene to the next via fade ins and outs. On the other hand, on the technical side, <I>The Darkest Hour<\/I> offers pretty wicked looking aliens (until we get a closer look at them) armed with a vicious shredding capability. Forget the main characters and their story; I could have watched those aliens rip people up for the full 90 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>Clearly <I>The Darkest Hour<\/I> isn\u2019t a good alien invasion movie, but, again, it\u2019s an alien invasion movie and, quite similar to <I>Battle: Los Angeles<\/I>, regardless of subpar filmmaking, there\u2019s something inherent in the genre that leaves you with the need to at least see the story through. Sure, the story is painfully choppy and the characters are terribly one dimensional, but it\u2019s not about them; it\u2019s about seeing what new crazy way we\u2019ve come up with to destroy our world.<\/p>\n<p><B>Technical: C+<\/p>\n<p>Acting: B<\/p>\n<p>Story: C+<\/p>\n<p>Overall: B-<\/B><\/p>\n<p>By <a href=https:\/\/twitter.com\/#!\/pnemiroff>Perri Nemiroff<\/a><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_79908\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-79908\" style=\"width: 500px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/TheDarkestHourPoster.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/TheDarkestHourPoster.jpg\" alt=\"The Darkest Hour Poster\" title=\"TheDarkestHourPoster\" width=\"500\" height=\"742\" class=\"size-full wp-image-79908\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/TheDarkestHourPoster.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/TheDarkestHourPoster-202x300.jpg 202w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-79908\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Darkest Hour Poster<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Title: The Darkest Hour Directed By: Chris Gorak Starring: Emile Hirsch, Max Minghella, Olivia Thirlby, Rachael Taylor, Joel Kinnaman, Veronika Ozerova Tell us an alien invasion movie is on the way and, regardless of who&#8217;s in it or what it&#8217;s about, it sparks intrigue.
