EDGE OF DARKNESS (Gibson) (2009)
MARTIN CAMPBELL
Plot
Boston police officer Thomas Craven's engineer daughter is gunned down on a visit home and, as he investigates, he is dragged into a web of corporate and government conspiracy. We don't have a genre for poor Hollywood remakes of great foreign stuff - perhaps we should - and I strongly recommend that you watch instead the quality 1985 BBC mini-series of the same name from which this detective thriller is adapted. Nevertheless 'Edge of Darkness' the remake works efficiently enough.
