Dark Crimes (also known as True Crimes) is a 2016 detective drama film directed by Alexandros Avranas and written by Jeremy Brock. It is based on David Grann's article True Crime: A Postmodern Murder Mystery, about convicted murderer Krystian Bala, published in 2008 by The New Yorker. The film stars Jim Carrey, Agata Kulesza, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Kati Outinen, Zbigniew Zamachowski, and Marton Csokas, and follows a detective who notices similarities between a cold case murder and a best-selling novel.

Principal photography began on November 12, 2015 in Kraków, Poland. It held its premiere at the Warsaw Film Festival on October 12, 2016. Saban Films released the film in the United States on May 18, 2018.

I get why critics don't like this, but it doesn't deserve a 0% on RT IMO. It's a mess for sure and a very dark/dreary film, but Carrey is so good here and pulls off a pretty damn convincing Polish accent at least compared to accents I have heard before. His performance along with Csokas are what kept me engaged for the majority of it and Gainsbourg has a really good scene at the end too. It just needed more work editing department, because it feels like quite a bit got either cut out of the film or left out completely which does lead to some confusion at times.
