A Thought-Provoking but Outdated Technical Display

Rating: 5/10 (8 March 2019)

Unfortunately, I never got around to watching this movie before it was outdated which it is now. That is probably a function of its massive success and cultural impact but it's the truth. Everyone knows what it means when someone leans back and waves their arms in slow motion so those kind of moments of awe were lost on me. The story (outside of the background) is corny and the acting is bad but I can understand why it was seen as important when it came out. It took a lot of risks but only a few of the stand the test of time. What it really is is a technical display and those age as technology advances.
