marcicat | Movie Review: Silent Running

Okay, so it was through a very random series of events that I ended up watching this movie, and it was Not My Favorite. It’s sort of like a combination of Cast Away and Wall-E, cutting out all the parts I liked.

(If you watched Cast Away and thought, ‘Eh, it was good until they gave it a happy ending,’ or if you watched Wall-E and thought it would have been better if the wee sprout had died symbolically, you might really like Silent Running.)

On the other hand, apparently the original script ended with meeting aliens, which would have been cool.
