be this the future that await u . an overpopulated and unforgiving wasteland with a hellish and unwanted existence . this film bring to mind a problem that still plague u and doubly so since the film be release in back in 1973. let hope that the world isn not go to end up like this . soylent green be a wild movie that i enjoy very much . it have likable character and a semi apocalyptic setting and a compelling and think provoke storyline and and the macho est macho man out there represent charleton heston . richard fleischer give the movie a very unpleasant and dirty feel . youre almost choke by the stench from the city and it filthy inhabitant . the character be wonderful . charleton heston and who have become one of my favorite actor and be thorn . the man create this role of badass and yet likable tough guy . i could definitely put myself in thorn shoe . he see that something isn not right and but everyone around him either doesn not listen ( more like pay not to listen ) or want him dead . edward g. robinson ( in his last film and r. i. p. ) play the lovable old sol and who have have enough of this nasty place . everyone else be great and especially leigh taylor young a shirl and a piece of furniture that come with the apartment in which she reside . the special effect be fantastic and even for 1973. the soylent green factory and the futuristic apartment and and especially the scoop ( bulldozer that get rid of people ) be excellent . the polluted air outside look disgust and very nasty . the empty city street fill with the vile and putrid people be very unsettling . one final note be the end and which even now still shock me . it be gruesome and but if you think about it and it a pretty good idea . the bottom line represent an excellent 70 science fiction flick that make you think and leave you feel very uneasy .
