Entertainment Reviews:
...An ambitious and self-consciously old-fashioned film....Terrific effects...
New York Times
Rating: 3/5 --
Darkman still remains one of Sam Raimi's most ambitious projects to date and it's hard to do anything but admire the kind of lofty ambitions Raimi tosses at the screen with his self-created superhero crime thriller/dark comedy mash-up.

Daily Dead
Raimi's live-action comic book aims to deliver scares spiked with laughs. That it does.
Rolling Stone
Rating: 3/4 --
a fun diversion that reminds us of how enjoyably loony the movies can be

Q Network Film Desk
...[The film] successfully captures the graphic look, rhythm and style of the super-hero books....DARKMAN somehow stays in a comic-book universe: a world of satire and swoony self-caricature...
Los Angeles Times
Despite occasional silliness, Sam Raimi's Darkman has more wit, pathos and visual flamboyance than is usual in contemporary shockers.

Variety
DARKMAN was prescient in more ways than one, for it gave star Liam Neeson his first really meaty action role of the sort that now constitute his entire career.
