A hard-boiled detective becomes suspicious of an author when the incidents described in his hit novel resemble the inner-workings of an unsolved murder.

Critics Consensus

Dark Crimes is a rote, unpleasant thriller that fails to parlay its compelling true story and a committed Jim Carrey performance into even modest chills.

The film's pace never deviates from its hushed, deliberate, anticipatory gaze - it's stuck in thriller-foreplay mode.

1/4

The screenplay teeters between depraved and confusing ("Truth is what you make it. Reality is perception.") Say what?

Source material with great dramatic potential. Talented director and screenwriter. Intriguing cast. That's a promising menu - but the end product leaves a sour taste.

This production pudding is so artificial that it is hard to believe any of the characters, save for Gainsbourg's.

1/5

It's very rare for a film to pretty much have no redeeming features about it, but Dark Crimes is essentially impossible to recommend beyond those who have a morbid curiosity.

There's not even much novelty in seeing Carrey play so aggressively against type in this oppressively artless slog.

This was absolute garbage. Also I can’t believe Jim Carrey decided to take on a role in this shit hole

Dark Crimes mostra Jim Carrey em um dos papéis mais sombrios e contidos da carreira. Aqui, ele abandona completamente a comédia e interpreta um detetive obcecado por um caso brutal, com atuação seca, introspectiva e quase sem expressão. Em poucas palavras: pesado, frio e desconfortável — um thriller que aposta mais no clima de tensão psicológica do que em ação.
