Dario Argento's new movie Dark Glasses just premiered at the Berlinale.
Reviews are not that great, but at least Variety claims it's crazy fun:

I'm not surprised it's getting bad reviews given Argento's track record of bad movies these past few decades, as much as it pains me to say that. However, Dark Glasses is scheduled to be streaming on Shudder in the fall, so I'm definitely going to check it out and judge for myself.

I am ambivalent, to say the least. He's burned me one too many times, now.

So, I know this is almost guaranteed to be bad given Argento’s track record in recent years, but given that it will be on Shudder, I’m going to have to watch it this October.

Flickering Myth - Movie Review – Dark Glasses (2022)'Flickering Myth' says, essentially, that it's OK. According to this review, it's very familiar material for Argento, but much better realized and competently made than his past few movies, and it's over quickly enough that it never overstays it's welcome.

I think that's about all we could've hoped for. Watchable but not brilliant.

It’s a fine movie, and sometimes, that is all you can ask for."
