One of the very best SF movies ever made...POSITIVELY BRILLIANT!!!, 23 September 1999
10/10
Author: inframan from the lower depths

There are always some people too wrapped up in themselves to pick up on the spectacular ideas & images in this movie, though it's hard to believe. The look & concept of the "future" in this movie is one of the most original in film, from the s/m club to the sexual roadside rest stops to having to hide your parents because it's a law to turn them in after a certain age _ but above all _ the concept of the hunt itself. Absolutely brilliant!!!
