“Darkness Of Man” (** out of four) was a muddled action melodrama about an alcoholic interpol agent (Jean Claude Van Damme) who is trying to defeat various elements of the criminal underworld while simultaneously taking on the role of being a father to a young boy (Emerson Min) who is the son of an informant who was killed in a drug raid gone wrong. Well-made and features one of Van Damme’s better performances but is a mixture of action and relationship story that doesn’t gel and goes on too long. Kristanna Lokken, Shannon Doherty, and Sticky Fingaz are all wasted in supporting roles.
