Review of Chronos (1985) by Evan D — 06 Aug 2008
If you lived in San Diego in the mid-1980's you were probably aware of the first IMAX Theater ever to debut at the Space Center in Balboa Park. Amongst the first IMAX films (if not THE first) was "Chronos" This was a quick follow-up to the very successful Koyaanisqatsi done in IMAX.
If you never saw this in IMAX, don't buy this DVD because you wont get it. It still runs in IMAX from time to time. If you can find it, GO SEE IT!!!!!! I saw it 23 years ago when it was new. My mom took me to see it.
Through the eyes of a 6-year-old it was haunting magic, it was so much of the world that I never knew existed and the scenes that would appear to "drag on" in normal aspect are lovingly embraced in IMAX.
You are literally immersed in some of the most breathtaking scenes that are poetic, mysterious and captivating. It is almost as if you are a god looking upon the earth in the 4th dimension. It helped define how I think today and for that, I love this film.
