Critics Consensus

A Dark Place's central mystery makes more than its fair share of questionable plot turns, but Andrew Scott's startling performance elevates it as a unique neo-noir diversion.

[Andrew] Scott here fascinates as a vulnerable yet remarkably resilient odd duck.

If it had simply lived in its mystery... than I think it would have been a more powerful movie.

2/5

The film, alas, despite [Andrew Scott's] best efforts, is dramatically inert and riddled with plot holes.

It will speak to you and it will stay with you for a very long time after you’ve seen it.

What elevates A Dark Place among other somber whodunits is our unsung hero's conviction for the truth.

Classic thriller, Isabelle Hupert puts in a wonderful performance. You won't get to sleep during this one but relies too much on sound effects to drive the suspense

The small town American story that has a necessity to be told, but apart from Scotts mesmeric performance, the characterisations were thin at best. Still worth a watch. ( Spoiler Alert ) The forced autopsy was utterly beyond belief in so many different ways.

Good thriller. The story takes place in the small town of Pennsylvania. Andrew Scott in the role of Donald Devlin who works as dustman. In addition, it suffers from Asperger syndrome. A little boy gets lost and drowned in the town and Donald Devlin investigates the case itself. In order to prove that it was murder. Tension, thrilling music and performance by Andrew Scott's great combination.
