Futuristic sci-fi has come a long way in the past forty years. The majority of sci-fi from the 70's and earlier had a flare for fantasy. It's as if, in decades past, the difference between plausible science fiction and magic was non-existent. "Logan's Run" is an interesting story, a good premise, and it's highly dated. It's also one of the most important sci-fi movies of the decade. View it as a 70's fantasy movie with shiny wardrobes, rather than sci-fi, and you'll be sufficiently prepared.

People can curse _Star Wars_ and its brethren all they want, but movies like this are evidence of just how DEAD cinematic sf was before Mr. Lucas followed his dream. Dull, silly, and another one of those '70s sf movies in which the future looks like a shopping mall in Dallas or something

The initial promise of a great movie in the first half was let down by some scenes that didn't bother to make sense or have a point, as well as some bad special effects. Still, it had some great individual scenes.

An interesting concept but poor in its excecution. The screenplay should have been much more focused, the editing is jerky, the dialogue is robotic, the entire population seems to have been sprayed in cheese and the amount of gender stereotyping and racism is shocking. On the plus side there's some nice photography, a few enjoyable scenes and Ustinov provides a strong performance.

ok the costumes are "bizarre", the acting is quiet poor, and the setting and effects ( especially the robot *lol* ) are really bad. But, and that's the most important point logan's run make a lot of fun. The idea is very interesting and compared to today's scifi bullshit ( without heart and any new idea ) i'd prefer movie's like this one with a lot of charme.

If "The Island" had been released before this movie, I would call this The Island on drugs, but because that isn't the case, The Island is Logan's Run off drugs. Though the pacing isn't very good, Logan's Run is definitely interesting, and it gets progressively better with a very solid ending. Pretty good!

Logan doesn't really run much. What you get is an ugly and poorly acted sci-fi entry to file under out dated trash. Peter Ustinov's Moses character is at least warm but mostly superfluous. You also get the worst robot in movie history which is kind of (unintended) fun. How this is somewhat respected is a mystery.

Top badass moment? Despite being closely pursued by baddies, Jen still appears to make time to stop, redesign and tie-dye her dress as soon as she gets out of the ice cave. This film is set in a society where underwear for women (except very skimpy tights), allotments (try using a spade with one of those things embedded in your hand) and old people, are apparently banned. And watch out for the most shit robot ever. About 12 cats (they kept moving so hard to count), no chainsaws or decapitations.

Starts off decent despite its many, many flaws. Notable cringeworthy events include: The worst robot design in movie history (kudos); Farah Fawcett not being able to deliver a line if her life depended on it. "Yes...I...remember..." ffs. If only Box was that robotic; And Jenny Agutter taking her clothes off for no good reason. The whole mess is oddly cut and poorly scripted. This movie has no right being this entertaining. Can't help but liking it.

I had fun while watching this, but couldn't help feeling disappointed at the lost potential. I would have liked to know more about Logan's world - maybe some history as to how this dystopic society came about. The colour-coded ages are seemingly important but aren't very well explained at all. Instead, there's far too much emphasis on what happens after Logan goes "outside" which isn't very interesting because, well, I already know what outside looks like.

Fun movie. Didn't get too deep cause the premise probably would've fallen apart preety quickly if you looked at it too hard. Funny how instead of just not killing each other at 30, they decide to blow up their near-utopian society and plunge civilisation back to the Stone Age and it's played as a happy ending.

It has some good issues; ie why people don't question their way of life outside of their own social ignorance, what society is like without the direction of a leader or government and the dystopic nature of "utopia." The special effects are first rate for 1976, and the acting isn't bad, although it's no better than B-grade. But I ultimately thought something was missing, even though there were some moments that were utterly hypnotic or captivating.

Starts off well, creating a future world with broad but effective strokes and some solid characters. Then about half way through it takes a turn that feels underdeveloped and from there on out it merely coasts along to a predictable and somewhat ineffective conclusion. Despite being a little cheesy, it's mostly fun and even that second half has some really good moments, even if they feel a little disjointed, it just feels like it could have been better.

The idea is solid, but this is probably the most dated film I've ever seen. It's really crying out to be remade. I heard a rumor of a Refn-Gosling remake. I'm not a huge fan of the duo, but that's because their other films lacked story. I think Gosling's charisma, Refn's style, and this story could come together to make a great film. Too bad it seems like nothing more than a rumor at this point. (Also, the circuit! amirite??)

Visually appealing, nice scenes, not so good acting, bad music and sound effects. Story shows projections of the 70s to the future - decadence, obsession of beauty and cheap industrial popular luxury. Nice carousel scene showing alternative approach to death. Too long, last 40min filled with non-sense. Similar to THX, Fallout, Planet of the Apes. Some propaganda on the qualities of our civilisation, so that every spectator could return happily back to his life. Should be cut by 40 minutes.

The Nolan-Johnson novel (about a hedonistic futuristic world where everyone must die at age 21) gets the glossy studio treatment here. The first half of this movie isn't bad but then things start to get silly, with a cat fight for Jenny and Farrah, Browne as a robot who looks like he's covered in Reynolds Wrap, and Ustinov babbling on and on as if he's ad-libbing until somebody locates his copy of the script. Watchable, but the Oscar-winning special FX seem pretty mediocre these days

Like a weird parody of minority report and Brave New World, another 60s scifi replete with obligatory synthesizer noises and an acid trip sequence every five minutes. The movie had me asking "what the hell is the point of this?" at too many moments, probably peaking when the escapees encounter a bearded robot obsessed with freezing everything.

It's likely that I am the only viewer to interpret this film in this Peircean way: the triumph of the method of science over the method of authority and the method of tenacity to inquire toward the truth through symbols as terms, propositions and arguments. This is most evident when Logan 5 is 'debriefed' by the Thinker (computer): "The object ankh...has been identified with the code word ‘Sanctuary.’ The object and the word both relate...to runners who have not been accounted for."

Interesting, but badly adapted version of the William Nolan novel from 1967. Written as a direct response to the 60's youth obsessed counter culture, I've been hearing talk of remakes forever.

I didn't check what year this was made before watching it, and as it played I guessed 1970 from the poor effects and acting. Turns out it was 1976. Wow. There's an interesting story hidden among this mess, but it's only able to peek out on rare occasions. Old is good, sci-fi is good, old sci-fi is good. But badly-directed and acted sci-fi isn't. Unfortunately, that's what you have here.

Buoyed by some surprisingly fresh visuals (Carousel & the brothel in particular)& a fantastic Goldsmith score (alternately creepy & thrilling) the film manages2 pull itself out from a matrix of Brave New World concepts, 1 too many glossed-over ideas & some elements of badly aged 70's sci-fi cheese2 spin its own particular brand of dystopia. The script takes the assinine 60's motto "trust no one over 30" 2 its logical extreme & also delivers some nicely subversive metaphors on authority& religion

Above average fun though horribly dated. Logan's reasons for running change about a dozen times through the course of the movie and what the hell was that robot in the ice?! Ice-Robot? Who ever heard of anything like that? I do love the old man and all his cats and it's a fun movie to watch as long as you don't mind Michael York's continued attempts to try to ruin the movie and the awful special effects. I should really give this a lower score...

There does seem to be a weird puritanical undercurrent to this story, as if the reason everything went to hell was just "those damn hippies ruined the world." It all looks very goofy by today's standards too. Still, the set-up is intriguing, and the chemistry between Michael York and Jenny Agutter (as well as eventually a delightful, mumbling old Peter Ustinov in the third act) is strong enough to carry the movie past many of its shortcomings.

A cool lil' Sci-Fi flick that really gets you thinking about age. Michael York shines as a 'Sandman' which is a term used to identify the police who kill residents who refuse to die at age 30. Otherwise, everybody lives in an exotic 'Domed-City' paradise. Jenny Agutter is amazing as his girlfriend. Some viewers may poo-poo the old school special effects, but Jerry Goldsmith's dazzling score should win them over in the end. An amazing coming of age story.

Michael York as Logan is a classic. I found this future world obsessed with youth to be engaging. Logan stays the vigilant cop until he is faced with some of the uglier parts of this utopia. Once he makes it outside and sees that life can function outside their walls, he is ready to throw everything away. I really liked the old man. He was crazy in the sweetest ways. I wasn't satisfied with the liberations. It all happened too quickly and it was too easy. Overall the movie was cool.
