Review of The Black Hole (1979) by Sébastien C — 25 Oct 2013
I'm amazed by the number of negative critics on this movie.
The Black Hole is a dark, moody and totally original film, with a strong story and solid acting. It may not have the polish of the early Star Wars saga, but the visuals are still impressive, not only thanks to technical feats, but also to the genuinely creative design of the ships (that scene where the Cygnus illuminates...) and robots. John Barry's soundtrack is also superbly atmospheric. Contrary to a lot of modern all-in-visuals-but-nothing-behind sci-fi space movies, The Black Hole ages very well.
