    i have just seen it 2 hours ago on a filmfestival. the directors cut(2004).

    i am not feeling the political/social message as being the unique quality of the movie, as it's been done countless times before and after the original release..(in 1970) (see Metropolis, 1984 etc.etc.etc.).

    To me, what really was inspiring and outstanding in it's quality was the extremely tight photography/graphics of it all.... somehow it felt more like a Kubrick flick then a Lucas one.. altho i must admit i have never seen any other movie of Lucas before (never seen any starwars..).

    my friend's immediate response after the movie was "damn. would love to have some superhigh resolution prints of some stills".. i had to agree... some (a lot actually!) of them are really worth filling a wall or two with!

    ACE.
