Elvis D @Elvis-Del-Valle Mar 3 Occhiali Neri no resulto ser el gran regreso que se esperaba de Dario Argento y podría haber sido una mejor película. Ya había pasado una década desde la última vez que Argento dirigió una película y al parecer perdió algo de su toque al estar tanto tiempo ausente. Además, el cine giallo dejo de tener popularidad y con el cambio de paradigma en el cine de horror, ya es un desafío revivir o actualizar algo de una época pasada. Se podría al menos seguir el ejemplo de Malignant que toma algo del giallo junto con otros subgéneros. Occhiali Neri no consiguió resucitar el giallo en su máximo esplendor y es más bien una película hecha para recordar aquello que hizo a Dario Argento una figura de renombre. Mi calificación final para esta película es un 7/10. See more The M @Stray113 03/31/2025 Dario Argento is back after 10 years with a Gaillo that recalls his animal trilogy in the 70s. It’s a mixed bag for sure, But it’s not as as his last ref films and actually offer some Nice set pieces, Great cinematography, And a thumping score that really jams. The only thing is the film is kind of undone by some clumsy riding in a low budget, but it’s pretty decent See more Fabrizio L @RT56470295 01/09/2025 First 30 minutes are good. Cool soundtrack and photography. But the plot, the actors and the solution of the giallo are very weak. I think btw its an improve after Dracula 3D, the true low point of Argento's career. See more Jens B @Jens97 01/22/2023 After suffering through "Dracula (not) 3D" a few weeks ago, "Dark Glasses" surely could not get any worse than that. And to my surprise, it was pretty okay! I really liked Diana, the kid was good, the kills were good, the score was amazing and the direction was miles away from Argento's more recent efforts. Sure, you can tell this didn't have a big budget, some actors are not the very best, the plot is questionable, and the whole deal about the killer wasn't very interesting to me. The worst offender in this was the awful color saturated digital look that kind of ruined the experience a bit. See more prawnda s @RT72497680 01/14/2023 this is a little too tense and seems to just run on forever. i do like the protagonist and i think she was very well cast for the role, but all the setup for this story devolves into a lot of incessant crying and screaming that did not feel graceful or meaningful. this segment in the river later on in the film feels especially tacked on, and the special effects used were not just immersion breaking, but an outright nonexistent behavior in the animals in question. if you are going to have an animal attack, you should at least try to ensure there's some measure of realism, but the animals in this film (dogs, snakes) seem to be some of the worst executed aspects, with fake hissing, growling, and barks that didn't match the dog's body language. basically, this movie has a lot going for it, but it just doesn't have much real substance, it's not representative of disability or blindness in a positive manner, and it continuously beats a dead horse as the script fumbles to come up with something to happen next. there are so many moments where it felt like the movie could have ended, but more things just keep happening, and none of them appear to have been structured intentionally, more so just lumped in to make the project longer. we get it, it sucks being blind, but the things that the protagonist and her young friend do are just incessantly high risk and irrational. the boy, chin, is sometimes quite competent as an actor, but other times i really lost enthusiasm at how poorly and blandly he delivered some of his lines. overall, i think this film would be better as more of a team effort, since i doubt a story this full of holes and contrivance was thoroughly edited or critiqued by anyone but the director himself, and from what i am able to surmise, he's really losing his touch. we just need to bring in a few people who are more detail oriented and objective about what aspects of the film really need to be present and which are just pointless loose ends or coincidences. See more Peter W @RT12077588 12/31/2022 Overall, Dark Glasses starts quite strong. This fun yet familiar serial killer film promises excitement and mystery, but sadly becomes a slow-paced fizzle as the runtime rolls on. Everything about this film, especially the soundtrack, feels strongly inspired by the legendary horror icon John Carpenter. Even the style of on- screen kills feels familiar and carry a strong, Carpenter-retro vibe. The main reveals here are highly predictable, and the showdown is disappointing, offering poor justifications and weak reasoning. There's an excellent concept here and a fun introduction, but sadly, in the end, there isn't anything that will resonate as strongly with film lovers as I would have preferred.
