BrianSez's Review

Summary - OK 2.5

George Lucas’ early skill is evident in ‘THX 1138’, a 1971 vision of an Orwellian future where all facets of life are controlled by a central power via directed entertainment, drugs, and manipulative counceling. As we know, you can’t fight human nature, and Robert Duvall shows us how people try deal with the system. All in all, very entertaining and clearly ahead of its time.

Acting - Good 3.0

The star of the show is a young Robert Duval who shows a great range. Donald Pleasance is also a familiar face who does a great job.

Male Stars - Good 3.0

Female Stars - Good 3.0

Female Costars - Good 3.0

Male Costars - Good 3.0
