Critic Reviews:
I don’t want to talk about Nebulous Dark anymore. It’s a "movie" I want to forget exists. It does exist, though, and it’s something that should be avoided. It’s such a depressing ordeal.
Films of this nature should either tell a coherent story with likable characters or have a certain charm about them that embraces its limitations and has fun. The film chooses to do neither and wants to be taken as a serious blockbuster. The completed film is a terribly written, acted, and directed fiasco.
The low budget of Nebulous Dark is evident in somewhat jerky movements of the CGI and reliance on computer effects to craft the atmosphere (literally). But the way the director calls back to and homages sci-fi classics of yesteryear is rousing and enjoyable. The acting is good, the creature and art designs are fabulous, and Apollo’s journey is engaging from start to finish. For those who want to explore a new world, Solimon’s outing will keep them constantly entertained.
