“Blacklight” is a political thriller telling the story of a government agent who uncovers a dangerous conspiracy in his own agency which could destroy America. Director Mark Williams (“Honest Thief” 2020) put together an ordinary action film which really is a Liam Neeson vehicle. This is a positive as Neeson’s presence improves any film due to his high-quality performances and popular everyman persona. Nick May and Mark Williams wrote the so-so script.
The supporting cast behind Liam Neeson includes Aidan Quinn, Emmy Raver-Lampman, Taylor John Smith, Claire van der Boom, Yael Stone, Georgia Flood, Andrew Shaw, Mel Jarnson, and Caroline Brazier as The Boss. The marginally watchable “Blacklight” was a flop at the box office for producer Mark Williams, Zero Gravity Management, Footloose Productions, Film Victoria, Screen Australia, and Briarcliff Entertainment.
