User Reviews

A true classic. Aged not so great in spots, but still so iconic. Love it

Steve Struharik

It's more interesting now, and holds up surprisingly well. Think of the MCU as Google/Apple and it's fighting to take over the world. Bang!

CGI still looks good compared to modern CGI, and there’s still a good story there.

Other than being ahead of its time, the film was beautifully done and the set designs, costumes, and animations were spectacular.

Revolutionary back then, charming and nostalgic now. Utilizes many familiar 70s-80s sci-fi tropes very effectively. Dated? Sure, but so fun.

John Scognamiglio

Such a good early Jeff bridges film. Really set the tone for computer movies and the digital world

It’s a classic movie even if it’s a little dated and cheesy

Tyler Edwin Nestor

The very first movie to use CG effects, and while some of the effects haven’t exactly aged well, it’s still an engaging masterpiece.

Definitely a fun film with great effects for the time would have loved to have seen more than just one sequel from this

It was good for it's time, now it's a little dated, but still a classic
