Critic Reviews for Colossus: The Forbin Project
All Critics (8) | Top Critics (3) | Fresh (7) | Rotten (1) | DVD (2)
After an excellent beginning, the craven script (based on DF Jones' novel Colossus) develops cold feet, injects some tiresome comic relief, and gradually begins to drag the whole thing down.
The movie is full of marvelous, absurd dialogue.
Above-average science fiction.
Taut, well-made sci-fi thriller about a massive computer.
A crisp, well-crafted movie that achieves its effects by calmly stating the facts, with the bare minimum of histrionics.
Harrowing and truly gripping despite an obviously paltry budget.
Audience Reviews for Colossus: The Forbin Project
Solid Cold War thriller, only let down by a cowardly ending.
Super Reviewer
Really, really well done "computers take over the world" movie from 1970. Highly recommended if you dig on paranoia fueled sci-fi!
