Eric Braeden stars as Dr. Charles Forbin, who has created a supercomputer named Colossus, built solely for the purpose of controlling the nuclear defenses of the Western alliance. It isn't too long after, however, that the Russians announce that they too have built a similar computer for those same purposes on their side--Guardian. And when the two machines begin sharing information at a speed nobody can believe, an attempt is made to disable them.
This unfortunately just raises the machines' ire; and in retaliation, they launch their weapons at each other's home nations. The result is a chilling scenario that is potentially becoming all too real these days.
COLOSSUS: THE FORBIN PROJECT was not a big hit at the box office for various reasons. One is that its cast wasn't exactly well known. Another reason is that its ending isn't exactly a happy one. Still a third reason is that Universal had trouble trying to promote it in the wake of the huge success of Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY. The latter reason is obvious: Colossus and Guardian, like HAL in the Kubrick movie, become central characters here. The difference here is that while HAL malfunctions due to a programming conflict, Colossus and Guardian remain all too stable, convinced beyond a doubt that they know how to protect Mankind better than Man himself. As the computers point out: "One inevitable rule is that Mankind is his own worst enemy."
Joseph Sargent's direction is efficient, and the special effects work of Albert Whitlock still manages to work despite its obvious age. An overlooked gem in the sci-fi genre, this should be given a revival.
稍微有点触动的是中间分手一段，争吵及关系的崩塌和后来以此改编成的演出唱段交叉呈现，情境基调的反差高效带出主题性。至于其他和整体……听听歌就好了。
怀念他们一起长大，儿时的下午最美好
到后期热泪盈眶，I have no time. I already 29.
粉丝向作品，表演刻意，音乐随意，缺乏亮点，强行催泪。
百感交集。对宽街和NYC的爱，林漫威永远能表达得到位。Rent是在我刚到纽约的第二个月结束了长达12年的演出，很遗憾没能看到。但教授和房东都安利过，加上看了各种视频，所以四舍五入就算看过了，当然影片中并没有太多关于Rent的着墨，而聚焦于Jonathan Larson。剧情节奏把握得很好，一直都有秒针在倒数的感觉。创作，生活，恋爱，哪一件事又不是在倒数呢？明天随时可能失去一切，唯有当下必须抓住。
说实话对这类音乐剧电影并不太喜欢。但有一段打动到我 男主回忆自己小时候和朋友在学校里排练唱歌 说 “希望人生每一天都这样度过。”虽然长大后的生活一地鸡毛 但或许会有一件事让你愿意不跟随主流 走入那条看似体面光鲜的上升路径 为主角纯粹而美好的理想主义感动。6.5
年度惊喜，加菲表演太精彩了，剧情流畅，感情细腻，配乐更是美妙。主角团队演唱的每一首歌都超级好听，故事中透露着力量。导演用的叙事手段很高明和传记本尊故事一样激动人心，紧扣人心。一场无与伦比的视听盛宴。
天才、纽约、梦想、年龄、资金、爱情、（同性、艾滋……是些看起来都老套得不行的关键词。可当电影用音乐剧的形式去讲述一个音乐剧作家时，这一切都变得好看起来。音乐真好！（加菲好帅哦～
為夢想拼搏就像是沒有後路的豪賭，要麽功成名就，要麽粉身碎骨。不是所有人的努力都會被看見，主角是幸運的，但是任何人都有放棄的權利，只要不去後悔。
看过rent，见到其中一版mimi的扮演者也有参演这部电影。端了五年盘子，写了最重要的那首歌，花了八年时间准备的presentation获得巨大好评，依然无法出道，所有追梦人的一个缩影。好在伯乐和朋友的鼓励让他继续坚持下去。rent的故事原来是来自他的朋友们，可惜生命停在了剧上映前一夜，好像唐涤生，天妒英才。似乎都是这样敏感、脆弱和感性。
is this real life？666
厄不巧最近看了一个有广告潜力的穷艺术家的故事，相比之下对挣扎的还算有良心的穷人的描绘都无法共情了（推荐我音乐剧的好友邻可以消停了（（
①大学时演的第一部剧就是本片主角写的Rent，②餐厅忙碌的段落也让我想起了在当年在中餐厅打工的日子，③主角的状态也是让人羡慕的，他付不起房租但仍坚持创作，而我付不起房租却仍麻木不仁…④所以就个人而言是部情怀片，暂时无法客观对待
This is the real life
其实的时候 觉得是值得五星的，但是在我看完热门的短评之后又觉得好像五星高了点，就是有些矛盾了吧，被影响了，但是其实也正常，有些短评也确实讲出了这电影的不足之处。我也表示认可，自然就变了评价。
这么点破事拖了两小时，歌挺好听的
希望大家不要给自己太多压力
未必是最好的影片，却是当下最难得，最契合个人情绪状态的电影。同片中的主人公一样，在某项事业上投入了数年的时间精力，却没有得到任何回报，而身边所有美好的一切也一点点从自己生命中逝去。到底是再投入数年时间，还是退出这个行业另谋出路呢？我的人生又还有几个年头允许自己这么去挥霍消磨呢？
心のほのほ 消えぬ間に，
I may never find a musical that speaks to me like La La Land, or maybe it’s not a musical I should be looking for. And stories like these, they make you wander why, and how could I.
