Dark Forces (2020)
4/10
Well shot but confusing
5 February 2022
As a few people have said here, it is technically beautiful, but there is no coherent plot/storyline. And even if the English language title was correctly translated (Black Fire) it still wouldn't be any indication of what is going on. The fight scenes are not done properly, there are only a few of them, so that didn't affect the movie. While the one woman was nice eye candy, and probably the man as well, the sex scenes were unnecessary and added (nor subtracted) from the apparently non-existent plot.

I don't want any spoilers here, so I won't try to explain what is going on. The acting isn't that good, although some of the eye contact is actually better than the acting.

And because this movie makes no sense it seems to be a part of some series, if not then this movie needs a prequel to explain what is going on.

The things I did like about this movie were the 'hero' rode a motorcycle, so glad it wasn't some muscle car from the 60s. And best was the way it was shot and lit, the sound wasn't bad either.

This might be interesting to film students, but if you are looking for entertainment, even at the B movie level, you really won't find it here.
