The whole movie is a lot more believable than a detective movie usually has a right to be. I didn't much expect to enjoy it - the genre has been in a state of decay since the 1950s - but I did.

Darker Than Amber had some of the ingredients of a pretty fair movie going in. A bad job of mixing and a few ingredients that don't mix well have resulted instead in a rather lackluster jumble.
