Reviews for Towards Darkness
[Director] Negret is clearly less interested in imagining a fictional romance than in conveying his vision of a land that has lost its way.
That someone is kidnapped in Colombia every three hours is a startling statistic that offers many cinematic possibilities. But Towards Darkness fails to use any of them to advantage.
A convoluted bilingual thriller about a kidnapping in Colombia, Towards Darkness may be too clever for its own good.
