I didn't say 'Dark City is a better film' - I just think it manages to convey menace and the hopelessness of struggling against an alien consciousness (alien in the sense of 'totally other', not in the sense of 'weird guys with big heads abducting hicks') in a stylish way which The Matrix doesn't.
I do think it's a good film, though, and makes important points about self-delusion and what it means to be happy.
