MacShoreman This is confusing. The poster and official web site states the movies name is "Dark Watchers - The Women In Black" but on IMDb the name is "Men in Black: The Dark Watchers". Decide please!Film projects employs most often a mixed crew. You find professionals with lifelong experience mixed with those who are at the beginning of a career and learning. Some film projects with fantasy budget has perhaps the fewest inexperienced crew members as opposed to low-budget films. This is a super low budget film. I would not really categorize this film as a motion picture. Somewhere there is a lowest level that a film has to reach for me to call it a feature film. This film does not reach anywhere near that level. This is something else. An unsuccessful hobby project or school project maybe but certainly not some thing to charge the public for viewing. This production falls flat. I do mean everything. Among the most notable is the directing and camera / visualization. Regarding the actors performance - this movie will not boost anyone's career. Maybe it's bad directing, which is the cause? In that case, I sincerely hope that the actors and crew are given the opportunity to show what they really can perform in future projects. About the directing. I seldom say things "suck" but in this case after giving it a really long thinking there is no options: The directing of this movie really sucks. After watching this movie I digged in to Philip Gardiners life and production history and I am not surprised this is the result of his craft. Philip Gardiner is the living proof that quantity is not a measurement of quality. I do doubt we will ever see a Gardiner production nominated for an Oscar or any other significant award of recognition. Do not pay to see this movie. Rather call a distant relative you did not want to talk to the last 10 years than spend time on this.

Lucas Masinga Going into this film thinking about the MIB franchise would potentially ruin a good Fear of the unknown dramatisation. The film started a little slow for me with some very arty woodland and coastal shots and some eirie music but don't be put off as the scenery was very nice to look at, then it picked up. As small budget movies go this has a really interesting Idea that kept me gripped, there was a feel of a documentary in most scenes which had me wandering if it was real at times and the cast seemed really relaxed with their surroundings until it happens. Towards the end of the film they looked to be really fearing for their lives. Overall when the film had finished I was satisfied with what I had watched, a spooky, quirky sci-fi. My favourite part of it was the blonde lead she made me chuckle at times and then had me very worried for her safety. All in all I do recommend you watch this film but only if you like the strange and wonderfully weird.

equazcion Philip Gardiner is a documentary film maker specializing in the weird and mystical, so he probably figured that expertise had prepared him to pull off a scripted documentary-style thriller ala Paranormal Activity. That seems to have been a premature assumption.The shots that make up this film are filtered and tweaked to look like documentary-style shots, but the multitude of available angles and some apparently hand-held cameras with no explanation of who's doing the filming would seem to ruin that illusion. We see the intimate lives of three female roommates who experience alien-related things. Sometimes that involves gratuitous underwear shots (cool if you're into average cockney girls), and weird visitations from the excessively-robotic "men in black" accompanied by fog that appears for no apparent reason other than an unsuccessful attempt at ambiance. PS. That fog machine was probably the most expensive effect in this production.If some performances were good (quite possible, at least for the lead girls), it was hard to tell through the poor production, and due to the fact that everyone probably had to improvise their way through accommodating the film maker's vision of stretching this into a feature-length movie at all costs. But even the mere 1-hour 15-minute run time was way too much. This should've been a short, though I'm not certain that would've saved it.Contrary to some claims, there actually is a story here, with an original concept no less. If you can bring yourself to sit through this school project, or at least skip around to grab the scenes that advance the plot, you might even go, "Hey, at least the guy had an idea after all."

iffitheking I tried, I really did try to appreciate this, but the LAME attachment to Men In Black (Its actually WOMEN IN BLACK-*COUGH* *AHEM* *LOL*)..when this is a very, very.........VERY lame parasitic attempt to siphon the fans of an actually entertaining franchise made me sick.The story is non existent, You WILL often find yourself asking (To Yourself) "What the hell does this have to do with the theme of Men In Black? "WHY are these people having casual conversations about nothing in particular?", "Why am I here?", "Who stole the last 75 minutes of my life and how do I get it back?"The "Character development" LOL...was a series of inconsequential conversations between inconsequential nobodies that lasted a total of about 10 minutes. The acting is C grade at best and From the start you can tell.I think I would have enjoyed this more (Slightly)...If it weren't toted as a sequel to something obviously well beyond the scope of this director(And infinitely more enjoyable and entertaining). Stay within boundaries and tame your ambitions before they misdirect you sir, you set the scope way too high and failed to deliver the experience. Sorry but the truth stings when its not what you want to hear.This was a total wreck and should not have been tied in ANY way to Men In Black. There are no aliens(More like low budget ghosts) although you will definitely feel alienated by the fallacy in its advertised motive(Sequel) and medium(MiB).
