Tim O. @Sealion66 Feb 2 This is a true Disney classic. Some would disagree but it's true. Yes, its has its flaws but it is a visual spectacle using at the time cutting edge special effects and the most expensive Disney film at that time. Also the first PG rated Disney film too. To this day it has a cult following... Even if you just want to watch it once, just to see the visuals, it was nominated for an Oscar for Best Visual Effects 1979 but Alien beat it.

I was only 7 when it came out and always had fond memories of the movie thinking the special effects was top notch.

Easily the worst movie I have paid for at a theater.

The reason it's unfair is that this was actually conceived as a disaster film, way before Star Wars was released. It has some stand-out performances, notably from Ernest Borgnine playing more or less the same character that he played in The Poseidon Adventure, Maximillian Schell, and Anthony Perkins. The matte work in the film is excellent, as is John Barry's music. The story is fairly predictable, and the robots... well, let's just say they will appeal to younger viewers.

The story begins dull and slowly gets sucked into a black hole of stupidity. An all-star cast cannot rescue it from its fate. It’s too late for me, I got sucked into the void, hoping all the while it would get better. Save yourself; avoid this at all costs… See more Read all reviews
