Anyone happen to see this film? Debating on whether or not to pick this up? Opinions? Good, bad? Worth buying the special additon versus the directors cut?
Thanks

    I like THX1138, I consider it a good movie, a lot of people wouldn't.

    It is a 70's artsy sci-fi comentary on where our society is possibly headed, with subtle satire. It is fairly well paced with a decent plot line, and some light action (with a classic chase scene). It is one of those movies where, the more you watch it, the more you find.

    I can't think of another movie quite like it. So the best I can do is, if you sort of mixed these movies together, you might get THX1138.

    great movie. Its not an action packed space opera like Star Wars . It can be slow in spots but its very thought provoking
