Soylent Green

Not very solid piece of filmaking, but Charlton Heston and Edward G. Robison are charismatic on the leading roles and the film is a rare take on subject of overpopulation and it's consequencies. And there is always the famous ending that one can never forget.....

Disturbing futuristic suspense, but good.

Interesting concept. Often melodramatic but I'm a sucker for campy sci-fi and rather enjoyed this one.

Would have won honors in a "futuristic satire" category, but is otherwise so predictable that one knows the content of the entire movie after just a few frames. And the tin ear of the screenwriter grates on every never and chafes at every sensibility. E.g., "Soylent Green...is...PEOPLE!" I would have used the same line to describe the film, but substituted for "people," one of their more fragrant byproducts.

Soylent Green is people!

Truly terrible example of of the Malthusian overpopulation apocalypse hysteria that was fashionable among public intellectuals and the media in the 1970s.
