Darkman is possibly the most underrated movie in the superhero genre. I can't understand why so many people ignore this movie. Especially after the success Sam Raimi has had with the Spider-Man movies. In fact...why hasn't Universal released special edition DVDs. Back when Spider-Man 1 and 2 were released it would have been the perfect time. But, anyway, this movie kicks ass for various reasons. First and foremost because it's a great combination of the monster and superhero genres. Ang Lee should have watched this movie before making his Hulk movie. Secondly, it has some of the most inventive action scenes in the genre. Also, Liam Neeson is awesome. One of his most underrated performances. He's able to be a nerdy scientist, tragic character, and superhero AT THE SAME TIME. Give the man an Oscar.
