Critic Reviews of "The Dark Horse"
Globe and MailApril 15, 2016Curtis is 100-per-cent watchable as a puffy, mumbling shuffler whose chess lessons double as life strategies.
Boston GlobeApril 14, 2016"Dark Horse" falls into the formula of underprivileged kids challenging the elites at their own game. But the outcome is never certain.
Washington PostApril 14, 2016"The Dark Horse" isn't always easy to watch, but Curtis's quietly powerful presence makes it worthwhile.
Arizona RepublicApril 14, 2016Curtis' portrayal of Gen's ever-present, invasive mental illness isn't mere window dressing and lacks showboating. The camera hugs his meltdowns with an uncomfortable perseverance as he talks to himself, hallucinates and turns manic.
Tribune News ServiceApril 13, 2016The film never shies away from the hard topics, and the actors bring nuance and heart to this intensely dramatic and affecting film.
San Francisco ChronicleApril 07, 2016There are heroes to root for in "The Dark Horse," and you'll feel mostly good about humanity walking out the door.
Adelaide ReviewAugust 10, 2016A hugely chunked-up Curtis, a Kiwi actor who's worked all over the world but returned home to star in and help produce Robertson's film, is masterly here.
The Mary SueJuly 15, 2016This year, Disney bypassed the feel-good sports movie, and luckily for U.S. audiences, we got a smaller but better version with The Dark Horse.
The Young FolksMay 22, 2016... The Dark Horse understands that it requires more than simple narrative tricks and interesting factoids to make its "true story" stand out as a great film.
East Bay ExpressApril 29, 2016A serious, even solemn, tale of personal redemption.
