POSSIBLE SPOILER ALERT: Okay, so I just watched this movie. I was pleasantly surprised. From the horrible reviews, I thought it would be the worst movie I've ever seen. Actually, I didn't think it was that bad. Was it the best movie I've ever seen? No, but it wasn't the worst, either. Let's get the negative out of the way first. The family subplot for Begosian added nothing. I think it would have been better if they had spent the time exploring the relationship between Bruce and Morgan Swinton (Deborah Unger and Kim Coates). Were there plausibility issues. Sure, but isn't that a problem with all films. Another "dark truth" is that reality can be boring, especially with heavy topics like this. The acting was universally excellent. Finally,(and this is the reason I give it a high score) I was CLUELESS about this topic before I saw this, and I'm convinced this is a large reason it was created, to publicize the issue. On this they were successful. And oh yeah, I never saw the end coming. The only problem I have is also warning to parents. This is very violent film. Much more violent than I thought it would be. .

This is the best picture Damian Lee has ever made! It deals with a very current and important world issue. The gunfire and violence is not for the faint of heart, although crucial to demonstrate one of our many global issues. A very believable connection between Eva Langoria and Forest Whitaker while Lara Daans plays the role of the "cast aside spouse" with grace and poise. Kim Coates never disappoints and Andy Garcia is great eye candy as usual! The unfortunate performance is that of Deborah Kara Unger. She appears zombie-like throughout the whole film and I am not sure what the name of that acting technique was but it did not work. Other than that, this film has its' finger on the pulse of the environmental issues in South America. Anyone who cares about our planet should see this film.

I've read most reviews here and can only think of one possibility: people don't believe, cause it's too sad. Well, on this matter (water privatizing and locals harmed) we have another 2 good examples: 1. An Oliver Stone documentary about politics in South America, and 2. A James Bond movie in which the main villain is doing almost the same thing. This movie was based upon real facts. When you're an ocean away from those stuff, the matter seems little. But as a South American, I must say that corporations buying governments causing death and suffering onto an entire nation is not a recent problem. Neither is the participation (or initiative) of G5 countries' governments. Well, to the movie: great information, good production despite its budget,awesome cast, great lines and balance between action and dialogues. I truly recommend it! PS: a good fellow wrote that the story is about something happening in some African country, but no, it's Ecuador - South America. Above Brazil, below Caribbean islands.

Whatever vices or virtues this movie has, it is a paean of really vicious hate propaganda against free market economics. The corporation in the story is blamed for an atrocious massacre which is actually committed by the Ecuadorian army, for a typhus outbreak and for the usual, general perversity and greediness that corporations are characterized with in this type of hate propaganda. I can only imagine what an Ecuadorian would think of the way his country is portrayed in this garbage can full of lies disguised as fiction. I would avoid watching this kind of trash if I could see it coming. Why don't movie reviews routinely include a commentary on the propaganda content of movies like this?

This is a lack-lustre movie in which a courageous former CIA man turned talk show host takes on a giant corporation and a rogue army. The hero would do credit to a Marvel Comics character with guns that never run out of bullets and providing a body count of mind-numbing numbers. He aims to ensure that the truth is known about evil machinations of the villains but the truth is that the film is packed full of clichés...from the characters to the detailed plot. A climatic shoot-out in which an unexplained group of assassins suddenly appear in a fleet of vehicles is grafted on to the story without rhyme or reason. Nor is there any clear explanation as to why the original lone assassin decided to kill off his mystery rivals...

This is one of the best corporate scandal movies ever made. This time it involves a Canadian company rather than a standard typical stereotype American one. Worldwide travelers like me will appreciate the international realistic business environment exposure that includes Canada, South Africa and Ecuador. Plot twists and turns do not disappoint. Scenes look very realistic and portray how real life business and living conditions exist in these parts of the world. The performances are outstanding. Andy Garcia gives perhaps his best acting performance yet in his career. Forest Whitaker is equally as impressive shining again as an actor playing another convincing international role character. Please do yourself a favor and watch this movie. It entertains and delivers so it should not be missed.

Okay, so I watched this because DirecTV was giving away a free preview before we would have to order it on VOD. And you know what? Every time DirecTV has done this, the movie has been HORRIBLE. Well... "A Dark Truth" hasn't changed that. I wouldn't even pay $1 to see this movie, it's that bad. I didn't know who Damian Lee was before this movie; he's the writer & director. In fact, as I'm watching this movie, I'm thinking because the writing is so bad, and the direction horrendous too, it must be a new filmmaker on the scene. You know, someone who got lucky enough to attach the name actors in the film and raise the money. After the movie was over, I look this guy up here on IMDb.... WTF?? He's written over 20 movies and directed over 20 movies!! Oh my God, this man is talent-challenged. I'm sorry, but after having written and directed that many movies, you can't be making crap like this. This isn't even a 'B' movie, it's a 'D' movie. Advice to Damian Lee: Start buying your scripts, stop writing them, please. The acting from everyone is pretty bad too, thanks no doubt to the bad direction. You know who the best actor in this whole movie was? The guy who doesn't speak (nearly) one word till the end of the movie (!), Kevin Durand. He plays the hired assassin and it's a small role, but he treats the part like it's more than a paycheck. Everyone else is mediocre or wooden. It's like the director gave everyone Vicodin at the start of each day before the cameras rolled. Horrible horrible movie, not worth the hour and 45 minutes of your time, EVEN if it's free.
