Pros: Very well done for a freshman effort. Well thought out.
Cons: Stark. Grim. A little hard to follow at times.
Before there was "Star Wars" or even "Ameri
can
Graffitti", there was "THX-1138." During the late 1960s and early 1970s there was a popular genre of film and literature (and to some extent TV as well) that explored the ...

Pros: Deep philosophical implications, outstanding cinematography, well-done extra features
Cons: Glitch with the subtitles? (I'm not sure if it's a feature or a glitch)

Pros: Very original, visually beautiful
Cons: Some of the acting is sub-standard, the plot moves slowly, so people with short attention spans will hate it
This is a beautiful movie. The setting is a world of the future where everyone lives underground and are forced to conform in dress, behavior, and in thought. No one has a name, only a three letter four digit id; the main character is THX-1138....
