VERDICT – 4/5
PROS -
1) Year 2022 - in a post-apocalyptic dystopian world, where there is worldwide shortages of food, water, and housing; women are reduced to concubines called "furniture". The poor population eats highly processed food: Soylent Red, Soylent Yellow, and the latest product, far more flavorful and nutritious, Soylent Green.
2) Roth's assisted suicide at a government clinic is surreal. Eerily, it is now a reality in 2022.
3) Charlton Heston as Detective Thorn gives excellent gravitas to the plot.
CONS -
N/A
QUOTE -
"Soylent Green is people!"
