Good, solid stuff, assembled efficiently enough to be pretty persuasive.
Fantastica Daily
This futuristic thriller just seems to keep getting better with age. An entertaining sci-fi flick done before special effects took over the genre.

Thanks to Phil Hartman's riotous Saturday Night Live impersonation of Charlton Heston's hysterical detective from Soylent Green, people who've never seen Richard Fleischer's film know its surprise ending.

Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
A stoic Heston, a nice turn for Robinson, and see-through ironies.
| Original Score: 3/5
New Times
Great sci-fi with a surprisingly environmentalist message -- you have to wonder if Heston paid close attention.
| Original Score: 4/5
Film Threat
A thought-provoking movie that is still relevant with the many environmental concerns that are out there now.
