TheBlueHairedLawyer Alright, I watched Dark Storm last night and I have to say it wasn't all that great. But it doesn't deserve some of the low ratings it has, at least not the ratings that go on about how bad the acting was. It was the CGI, the exaggerated and bad lines and the abrupt ending with little explanation were the real issues.Basically the plot follows Daniel, who got into an accident at a scientific research station involving a mysterious substance called "dark matter" which is being used by the army as a weapon. Daniel finds himself able to manipulate and control the weather; he also develops telekinetic abilities that are extremely awkward and out of place in the suburb community he lives in. Daniel ends up sick and could possibly die from being "infected" with the dark matter but the army has its own sinister agenda.This movie is a victim of a low budget and overuse of CGI, not bad acting or a bad plot necessarily. For what it's worth, I really thought the story was interesting, and most of the actors/actresses really put a lot of effort into their roles. William B. Davis is my favorite actor, I've seen a lot of movies he's acted in and he's well-known for his acting as the enigmatic Cigarette Smoking Man in The X-Files, and I still think he was a great actor in this movie. I liked the soundtrack, it wasn't bad heavy metal or country, thank god.The bad script lines took away from the plot, as did the abrupt ending, but my real problem was the overuse of CGI. In some movies CGI looks good, but not in this case, it made this movie look like a cheap video game and with the budget this movie had the CGI wasn't as professional-looking as it could have been. The Canadian scenery was nice, I think this movie could've benefited from less CGI and just filming in a realistic setting.

MrOllie If this film was going to win an award it would surely be in "The Most Annoying Hairstyle in a Movie" category. An overweight Stephen Baldwin's hair certainly annoyed me from the very start of this film. Anyway, this movie is about some scientists who have discovered something code named "Eruptor", which is a device that supercharges Dark Matter and uses it to change the molecular structure of it's target, thereby eradicating it. Simples! Mr Baldwin sort of ambles through his role as the main man to save the world, helped by his trusted friend and his loyal wife. The special effects are decent and although it is all nonsense, it is worth a watch just to see Mr.Baldwin's hair.

dbborroughs In an effort to use dark matter as a weapon a storm of dark matter is created threatening civilization and so on. (You know the drill now fill in the blanks) Okay SCFI channel original style film is silly but it plods along at its own clip and remains watchable through out. Give the cast points for trying to sell the utter nonsense of the plot. This is not something I'd search out but if nothing else were on... but frankly there are worse things to be watching on a rainy Saturday afternoon, I know having seen a great many of them.5ish out of 10.

kiawa77 Here are some things that are a better use of your time than watching this film:Cleaning the toilet with a toothbrush.... Reciting Neil Diamond lyrics.... Vaccuuming your entire home twice.... Watching dust collect on your coffee table.... Sitting at your doctor's waiting room just for practice.... Calling an elderly female relative.... Listening to static on your radio.... Watching flies mate.... Doing any paper mache project.... Blowing bubbles.I admit that I could not watch this one to the end, and I've made it all the way through some really bad Sci Fi Originals. This one lacks substance at every turn, with characters having about as much personality as a doorknob. It made little sense to me, not because of a complicated storyline, but because I could not bear to pay much attention to it. This film is brutal in its boredom, and you would be wise to stay away!
