Review of THX 1138 (1971) by Anthony G — 08 Aug 2008
Slow start, but picks up well and draws a lot from some classic works about societal pressures for conformity and control. Some great chase scenes. Very apparent that 'The Island' is a total rip off of this film, but it is an excellent rip-off, so was worthy of release.
The version of THX 1138 I saw was George Lucas' CGI enhanced re-release, which also has some extra footage. It's funny how most of the hi-tech aspects of the film, look so old-tech now...
