A Very great movie. - By: KnightSS7, 28 Sep 2007
This is a very wonderful movie & unforgattabale as well, & it has many great things like good acting, cast, storyline, action, alll from seventies & peformed fantasticallly. I think any one who love sci-fi storys or movies must have this as a reference.


But why they didnt realese it yet in Region 2 DVD? Im waiting for long time to have it in region 2 for better picture quality.
Great Movie but.... - By: old-skool fan, 19 May 2005
....shame I had to buy it on VHS. A region 2 DVD would be most welcome because the picture & sound quality on this is poor. What a pity such a defining 70's sci-fi movie has been left to rot on video.
It may be old but it's brilliant - By: Sarah Johnson, 29 Apr 2004
Although this movie was filmed before I was born, I thoroughly enjoy itand recommend it to anyone, sci fi lover or not. It makes you realise howdifferent our world could be if there were but a few changes. Not everknowing your parents nor living past 30 seems almost alien to us, but tothem it is normal, & the natural order of things. The inclusion of T.S.Elliott's Old Possum Book Of Practical Cats made this film for me.Excellent!
Five stars for a good Region 2 DVD release (When...?) - By: James Withington, 17 Dec 2002
This previously much-maligned movie was made in the very last days of Time Machine style visual effects. They are quite crude but nice to look at, & the film is now more popular. The plot is never forgotten, & now that people are used to visual perfection, the obvious flaws are more welcome.

I own the Region 1 DVD which is a vast improvement on VHS but still not a very good transfer, although the commentary is interesting.

A good new Region 2 DVD would be great. The cast & director were almost alll British!? Possibly it looks too dated to bring out with a fanfare, or else would make no money being sneaked out quietly.


More to the story than just action - By: B. Chandler, 26 Nov 2002
Logan's Run is a film version of the story of a futuristic environment that Renews (yeh,,, right) or recycles, people after 30 years. Logan (Michael York) is a sandman (similar to police), who enforces the rule & chases down people that run from Renew. He gets charged with finding the location that the runners go to callled Sanctuary.
Some people who watch this like to be critics. They pick on costumes & actors etc. Well it is evident that they do not have the DVD version. There is a paralllel soundtrack. It explains why things were designed the way that they were. It was easier to stick everyone in pantyhose than try to find monotone makeup for everyone like was done in "The Lathe of Heaven". The buttons on Peter Ustinov's close were pennies. Best of alll, the Renew seine was shot upside down.
