...a movie based on an ending. And if you can't figure out that ending ten minutes into the movie, you aren't paying attention.June 05, 2007
A sluggishly directed look at life and death in the 21st century.February 09, 2006
Good, solid stuff, assembled efficiently enough to be pretty persuasive.October 10, 2005
This futuristic thriller just seems to keep getting better with age. An entertaining sci-fi flick done before special effects took over the genre.June 20, 2011
Not well thought-out and a genuine disappointment for all its visibility in the popular conversationJune 05, 2007
Uneven and slightly muddled futuristic horror story -- not really science fiction, more like an antipollution PSA gone berserk.April 01, 2011
Where so many science fiction visions of the era have dated, this gritty creation of a depressed (and depressing) future... looks all the more real.May 09, 2005
Their 21st-century New York occasionally is frightening but it is rarely convincingly real.June 15, 2007
The film was a typical seventies sci-fi effort, scientifically illiterate and unimaginatively composed.July 05, 2004
The future never looked as retro...June 05, 2007
The somewhat plausible and proximate horrors in the story of Soylent Green carry the production over its awkward spots to the status of a good futuristic exploitation film.May 09, 2006
Modestly entertaining.
