  • Collosus A Gem Of A Film

    This is a gem of a film. Made in the 1970s, of course the specifics of the technology on display is dated, (Though they got the macro elements right, even by today's standards), moreover, the premise, plot, and acting performances are great, and hold up very well. Very watchable, intelligent, and enjoyable to re-visit. Great cast, including Eric Bradden who comes across brilliantly as a genius among similarly gifted, and entertaining geeks, with him being in charge. Pincent (who is a legendary Canadian actor) comes across as a pretty darn good President (Kennedy-ish) of the USA. A solid supporting cast, with a few familiar faces.

  • Intriguing Premise

    I remember watching this movie when I was a kid and being fascinated with the computer. I had to buy a copy to see it again. The movie was filmed around the time of The Andromeda Strain, Soylent Green, and 2001: A Space Odyssey. Generally speaking, it is a good movie with an intriguing premise. For its day, the special effects are actually quite good! The movie meanders and derails towards the end but overall is enjoyable viewing.

  • really good title

    great sci Fi movie.really gives a realistic preview to what could happen with computers and AI. I"M not saying it"s better than terminator series, just easier to believe considering all the surveillance and intelligence...

  • good 1970s and relevant today

    biggest con is the aspect ratio is not wide screen. so a digital pan (jerky) is used and some of the action is missed.

  • Long Lost Sci-Fi Classic

    This movie never recieved the attention it should have...and still doesn't. This is an engaging story from the get-go, although could have been fleshed out more. The film begs for a current day remake given US-Soviet relations as of recent time. What would happen now if the US & Russia had two super computers that ended up in bed with each other? I can't believe it would be any worst than the Trump-Putin Show we have now. This is a very good flick, with a Star Trek camp about it.

  • a look into the future from wayback when

    This movie is very good, A-La Michael Crichton. If you like Crichton, this is a nice fit Highly recommend
