Icarion rated ★ 5/10
Une vision apocalyptique du futur de l’humanité dans un monde détruit, surpeuplé, surchauffé, où la nature n’existe plus et où la vie humaine ne vaut plus rien. Un film tristement visionnaire à de nombreux égards mais qui peut laisser sur le côté du fait de son rythme assez lent. Le conclusion, cependant, demeure toujours aussi sombre et puissante.
Synopsis
In the year 2022, overcrowding, pollution, and resource depletion have reduced society’s leaders to finding food for the teeming masses. The answer is Soylent Green.
Community Reviews
Viewers find 'Soylent Green' a compelling, albeit dated, sci-fi classic that brilliantly tackles themes of overpopulation, ecological disaster, and corporate deceit. The film's dark, dystopian atmosphere and shocking twist resonate with audiences, though some criticize its slow pacing and outdated special effects. The portrayal of women and the predictability of the plot were also noted as drawbacks, yet the film's prophetic vision and Charlton Heston's performance are highly praised.
