Gibson shines perfectly, almost as if eight years from being behind the camera, was nothing. Edge of Darness, is a grim and emotionally charged thriller that brings us the inevitable nature of drama in all its glory. Martin Campbell works it well with thrills and mystery at every turn taking us to the edge of our seats with precision and gut wrenching emotion.
“You decide whether your hanging on the cross or bangin’ in the nails!” thats the signature and marketable line for Martin Campbell’s well paced and suspenseful remake of the BBC series, Edge of Darkness. Where most studios are looking for their version of Taken, some version of a story with an angry father hell bent on chaos and destruction to find the truth, find his daughter or right some wrong. Darkness is definitely that but more. Its a thriller first, drama second and top notch pace of human exploration third.
