Ratings and reviews

Proper cult science fiction. A must see if you want to be a sci fi aficionado.

Great futuristic cautionary tale. Another absolute sci-fi classic that anyone who enjoys the genre should see.

Great film with a powerful story and message for the future. Great ending for Edward G. Robinson's career
