The Darkest Minds

Make this a tv series cause i feel like they have a lot of characters to know but not enough time to develop.....make it a tv series asap

An excellent young adult movie with a novel take on special powers. Excellent young cast. Thriller pace with tender moments. I give this movie an 8 out of 10. [Super Powers]

Love that Rue gets her own YA-movie adaptation

The movie itself is, in my eyes, kind of a mixture between X-Men, Hunger Games/Divergent, Harry Potter and the Maze Runner. You can see all kinds of things from those movies in this movie. So if you liked those movies, you probably will like this movie too.

I haven't read the books so I don't know if it's a good adaptation, but the movie got me intrested for the next parts. Too bad that this movie practicality is an intro to the next parts, so it lacked a story and action on its own.

With this ending, there as to be a follow-up movie, otherwise it would be a shame to not know the intended ending of the screen writers

I liked this movie. I know it has some bad reviews, but the messaging, and the acting of Amandla Stenberg is worth the watch. My only complaint is that the fight/conflict scenes could have been better, more complex

I enjoyed this movie. Easy going. Would make a great TV series. Well worth a watch.

Ignore any comments putting it down simply because it's a young adult genre. Truth is some of the best books ever written are young adult books. They knew what they decided to watch so they shouldn't cry about it later.

Otherwise, it's a great story, creative and tries to be inspiring. It's pretty good overall. A little too short for the story. To much must have landed on the cutting room floor, but entertaining overall.

I enjoyed that, some good action and casting was sound and not heard anything on a squeal in the last 3 years of holding this off till now but with the ratings it has I don't see one coming but it would be nice because that ending got me craving for more.

Had 0 expectations about this movie but I really enjoyed it. Great adventure/sci - fi

This was a good film with some fantastic cinematography and amazing visuals. It is let down, by the desire to make the idea into a series and fails in the same way The 5th Wave and The Divergent Series have. The problem with making films from books is that the readers spend their time building the universe being described. With films, that world is given to them, so the viewer needs something else to spend their time progressing with. Unfortunately, this film doesn't even attempt to provide a substantial amount of action and instead opts for narrative and story. The result is a fairly slow, albeit enjoyable, film without anything significant to offer. Instead, it just feels like they spent their time working on a way to create it into a series - and fails. Worth a watch, just don't expect there to be a true ending.

The idea is original, but the film has a lot of narrative and obvious gaps - it was clear that the bad guy was the president's son and the good guys were the League. In addition, a story of teenage love prevails over dystopia. All in all, it is an entertaining movie.
