Lekarz sądowy wraz z agentką ubezpieczeniową prowadzą śledztwo poszukując potencjalnego zdobywcy Nagrody Darwina. Tytuł ten nadawany jest pośmiertnie ludziom, którzy poprawili ogólny bilans puli genów całej ludzkości, zabijając się w bardzo głupi sposób, a tym samym usuwając z niej swoje geny. (Tim Film Studio)

It will remain a mystery to me for a long time how such a subject and such a cast could have produced such a lackluster film. While "idiocy of dying" is notoriously familiar from any number of internet fan sites, its visual execution offers not a shred of innovation. Of the characters who weren’t properly utilized, the only ones that I vaguely remember are the dork Fiennes and the pair of "MythBusters." In more skilled creative hands, this would have been a memorable romp for generations to come, but this has been rightly forgotten.

Decent fun with a pleasantly wacky and dark idea. The detective line is excellent, spiced up with decent dialogue and fine details. You could say this is a non-horror variation of Final Destination. I was entertained and even laughed at times. Too bad I ran out of breath towards the end. 65%.

Oh well, I didn’t enjoy The Darwin Awards as much as I did when I was younger. In fact, I was quite disappointed. The idea was great, no doubt about it, but the execution didn't quite work out. I enjoyed the stories of all those who were dying or harming themselves and others, but I wasn’t exactly thrilled about the central duo (or rather a trio). When romance started to creep its way in, it was the last straw. I’m also not a big fan of Joseph Fiennes (unlike his charismatic brother).
