If you require a reason to see The Darkest Hour, the best I can offer you is that it isn’t as bad as last year’s Skyline. But that doesn’t amount to much – it’s still pretty bad. It’s a silly, lightweight alien invasion thriller populated by stock characters that are all but overshadowed by special effects, which were obviously made with care. The dialogue is a reliable mishmash of panicked screams and cornball jokes that stay within the limits of the film’s PG-13 rating. It relies on explanations and turns of events that don’t even try to be plausible. And then there’s the fact that it has been shot and released in 3D, which is so sparsely utilized that it begs the question of why it needed to be released that way (and I mean apart from the fact that it’s currently a popular trend). Considering how much the process dims the picture, I guess the second word of the title is apt.
It begins with two young American software designers, Sean (Emile Hirsch) and Ben (Max Minghella), flying to Moscow with the intention of launching their own social network tool. Unfortunately, the person they were supposed to partner with, a Swede named Skyler (Joel Kinnaman), has already screwed them out of a deal, claiming the tool as his own. Later on, they try to figure out what to do at a local nightclub, where the music throbs and booze flows out of fountains. They use the prototype of their tool to locate and hook up with an American tourist named Natalie (Olivia Thirlby) and her Australian best friend, Anne (Rachael Taylor). Anne’s back story is nonexistent, but with Natalie, there are hints of an ex-boyfriend and the occasional text from her worried mother.
During the opening scenes, what do we learn? Not a whole lot as far as the characters are concerned. Ben is a worrisome yuppie type, Sean is an outgoing wiseass, and the women are pretty much as I have already described them. For the rest of the film, they’re required to be nothing more or less than panicked survivors. We learn even less about Russia, with the notable exception of three things: 1.) Moscow is a very good place to go clubbing; 2.) it’s customary for the businessmen there to screw you out of deals; 3.) the people there greatly enjoy advertising McDonald’s. Funny that a film would show such little interest in the country it takes place in, given the fact that the producer is Timur Bekmambetov, the Kazak-born director known for his Russian films.
Nowadays, there are fewer chances for those who have music talents to be heard and known. I know for a fact that music industry is so wide that it takes for one talent to go through several difficulties and hard ships just to get to where they want to be. And majority of them failed. I’m wondering if there are people who have the heart with the good purpose to help them. I don’t really have the talent for music, but I love music and I want to hear more beautiful songs. I know there are a lot good musicians out there waiting to be noticed and to be given the chance for a big break in their career. I’ve heard about Munite and I got curious, so, I browsed their website in the internet. I’ve read through their page and I was so impressed with what they want to happen to people with music talents. They have the purpose to help the musicians and the people involved in music to be discovered. They also want facilitate partnerships and build communities of music genres to fortify and strengthen relationships with a meaningful cause. I say, they are absolutely the right people for musicians to entrust their talents and develop them.
In our bad economy, it is important to choose the people to be trusted because we don’t want to be used by anyone for their own benefit. And for your talents, I strongly believe that Munite has the thing for your dreams to come true. Because they are helping the people who they think has the potential to excel. And they give chances to those who have the talents but are afraid to show what they have. If you think you are of those, I am convincing you to visit the Munite’s website and discover what great things waiting to happen to your music career.
