Stalker Review

Stalker came out in 1979 and was directed by the ever-erect Andrei Tarkovsky. We have used science (and possibly the box cover) to determine that this movie fits perfectly into the "Russian SF" genre.

During the time we had our polls open, 1 shameless viewers just like you weighed in on Stalker. 1 of 'em thought it was great! 0 thought it was shit. Takes all kinds.

This is a Dave and Jim's B-Movie Review. This review was written some time between 1996 and 2001. Once you've sucked the marrow from this one, you can head back to the full list to pick another review for savoring. Do it again and again.

Dave's Review

This movie definately droned on (Just like the director's Solaris) but it had some really brilliant moments scattered about. It's watchable, but make sure you're in the right mood to see it.

Dave broke it down like so: Technology: 6 Action: 1 Nudity: 0 Coolness: 5 Badguys: 2 Gore: 1 Shock: 3 Dialog: 7 Post-Nuke?: Y Music: 8 Plot: 8 Length: Long Overall: 8

Jim's Review

The movie would be fine if the last 20 min were chopped off.

Jim broke it down like so: Technology: 5 Action: 2 Nudity: 0 Coolness: 3 Badguys: 1 Gore: 0 Shock: 2 Dialog: 1 Post-Nuke?: Y Music: 2 Plot: 6 Length: Long Overall: 4
