It made me cry when I was a kid! So sad, the little robot watering the plants! Boo Hoo!

Bruce Dern. Say no more.

I still have the soundtrack.

My roomate loves the shit out of this movie. I think it's pretty great. Good and weird. Filming on an old aircraft carrier!

Not Crap.

Edit: how does it stack up against Soilent Green?

It did not age as well as I expected it would have, but I still liked it.

Sure it's a cheesy, dated, sci-fi b-movie, but I like cheesy, dated, sci-fi b-movies, so not crap for me. But those who don't rent anything unless it is on the new release wall will be naturally peeved.

I'd take it over Cool Runnings, myself.
