Like: doesn't need music to create tensions; the setting is still a possible future; the depiction of characters enjoying of the food.
A chilling sci-fi thriller about a dystopian future. Heston and Robinson are superb, plot is gripping, ending is shocking.
I think this film has something very important to say about lost humanity and classism. Unfortunately not a fan of Heston’s acting.
Campy, but fun movie. After watching, all I could do, was wonder, does soylent green tastes like chicken? 🤔
It’s a classic. Due to its age most people know the plot to this film. I think it should be watched for reference points.
It's a bit slow and (by today's standards) predictable, but it's a very good story and a total classic.
If we applied this to real life, killers, rapists and pedophiles would finally have purpose.
A tale about the downfall of man in a not to distant future. Interesting take on Dystopia.
This 1984-type movie really needs a remake. The only famous part is the big twist, it could use some fleshing out.
Quality dystopia... future, too many people, fashionable and stupid Malthusian premise from todays angle, but good movie.
