Logan's Run


Netflix delivered this sci-fi classic to my doorstep last night and so, I took a few hours break from my work and watched it with Lynda.
My quick, vague, not-helpful review?
Better than Barbarella but not nearly as good as Tron. (Though, to be fair, Tron came a few years later and benefited--somewhat--from better production values.)
Still, Logan's Run is a classic that is referenced by a lot of other things and it is clear that some of the design of Syndrome's island in The Incredibles is influenced by The City in this movie. But, I must point out that the makers of LR need to sue Michael Bay for ripping off their ideas when Bay made The Island a few years ago. Shameless, really, though much more visually appealing.
