Why do most people consider the film dark?
- It has a dark production
- It's based on depression and others
- Its comedy is slow-paced
- The group termed it "Dark!"

A. It's based on depression and others

Explanation

Most people consider the film dark because it is based on depression and other dark themes. The film likely explores the struggles and hardships of characters dealing with depression, which can create a somber and bleak atmosphere. Additionally, if the film also touches on other dark subjects, such as trauma or addiction, it further contributes to the perception of darkness. This combination of themes and subject matter can evoke a sense of heaviness and darkness in the overall tone of the film.
