i remember this movie from when i was a youngster. a friend said to me that this movie (like so many others) has many similarities to what is really going on in the world today. i was curious so i bought a dvd copy to watch the movie again after 40+ years and i wasn't disappointed! my friend was right, potentially there were references made to various contentious talking points regarding todays world (domed city, total control, the hidden hand, fake constructs, euthanasia (genocide), eighth monkey syndrome, ice walls, to name a few). i also enjoyed watching the directors commentary at the end of the movie. all in all this movie was great entertainment and it offered an escape from the dystopian nightmare world that we live in today.

Entertaining futuristic story set in a time where humans are placed in smart cities run by an artificial intelligence. (in order to escape the consequences of overpopulation and pollution to the planet.) All their human needs are met, however the rules are that when one reaches 30 they have to report for carousel. Another rule is that when one human dies another replaces them in order to maintain a balance. It is not stated if individuals are cloned (Hence their renewal) or just share the sames name such as Francis 7 or Jessica 6. People have no knowledge or interest in their past. However the story line is interesting as is the conclusion.

Excellent trip down memory lane. This is a great film. Teaching critical thinking and all that glitters isn't gold. When Logan realises all they had been told was a lie he runs with Jessica to find sanctuary. He finds a world far different that his wildest dreams
