5.0 out of 5 stars A Science-Fiction classic on DVD at last 27 Sep 2008
By I. R. Kerr TOP 500 REVIEWER VINE™ VOICE
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
My old VHS tape can now rest in peace, at last we have a widescreen DVD version of Logan's Run with remastered sound.
It's one of my favourite movies of all time. It has a great fast moving story, lots of beautiful people intent on living their alloted 30 years to the full but living alongside a darker underclass, the cubs, and an underground movement that helps "runners" try and find Sanctuary. The special effects are great and won a Special Achievement Award at the 1977 Oscar's and Jerry Goldsmith's music, a mix of orchestral and electronic is superb, I have the OST on vinyl' and to top all that off it has Jenny Agutter.
I agree that the effects do look dated now but bear in mind that at the time their use of lasers was ground breaking. I saw it when it first came out and have watched it countless times since and it has never lost its appeal to me.
On the extras front the commentary by Michael York (Logan), director Michael Anderson and Bill Thomas the costume designer is very informative, the costumes played an important role in portraying a society where pleasure appears to be the sole purpose. The featurette on the making of the movie has a quite grainy quality to it but still gives a reasonable deal of information and is a nice addition.
Now how about someone releasing the Logan's Run TV series with Heather Menzies?

4.0 out of 5 stars Good, region-free Blu-ray for classic Logan's Run 19 July 2011
By Dr T
Format:Blu-ray|Amazon Verified Purchase
This Blu-ray is a US import. It is region-free. The extras are standard definition, from what I can tell, but also play fine in the UK.

The picture transfer is quite good. It's variable throughout but the colours are vibrant and there's some good sharpness here and there. In fact, you can tell the opening shots are models more so than before - and can spot some of the special features (like during the Carousel) with actors on wires. As has been said in other reviews, the sets themselves are quite plain which hampers the overall effect a bit. The overall effect is solid and faithful rather than outstanding.

The sound is quite good - although there's a lot of directionality applied to the voices (if someone's speaking from one side, the sound follows them rather heavily). This does not affect things too badly, but is noticeably.

The film itself is a classic. I must say it drags a little bit towards the end upon repeat viewings though. Still well worth seeing and a good one for the collection.

Lastly, there's a nice period documentary about the film. It's a bit OTT but informative and amusing nonetheless. There's also a commentary track - with lead actor, Michael York. I've not had time to listen to it yet but it's good to know it's there for future viewings.

Pos-Apocolyptic thriller.Superb Film, brought back memories of the TV series on BBC (Which I can't find video's or dvd's of anywhere).

The story set in the future where once you hit age 30 it's time for the Carosel (sic) - Renewal is promised but only electrocution awaits. Based on this concept some people take offence and decide to "Run". Enter the Sandman (No metallica pun intended ;-) ) who's job it is to track down and eliminate the runners. A story then surfaces about "Santuary" where all may live until old age and natural death. York , converted into somewhat of a spy by the powers that be, has to infiltrate those who support and provide help to the runners, effectively becoming a runner himself.

York is in outstanding form as the Sandman turned Runner. Agutter is ample as his fellow runner. The special effects while obviously dated are not cheesy and one is not offended by them.

In the end this was a very tidy film, way ahead of it's time and still very enjoyable to watch to this day. Now if only I could get my hands on the videos of the origional TV series :-((

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic fare, often copied, never bettered. 20 Jun 2012
Format:DVD
This film has intrigued me since the day I saw it. I think I subconsciously compare every other viewing experience to it in some way or another. I'm sure the visuals had a hand in it; perhaps laughable by today's standards, nonetheless, they presented clean sleek lines echoed by contemporary movies like Rollerball and imitated by others such as the Island. The lavish vista of a utopian society, the origins of which are never really explained, seems to hit the mark with me somehow. The obvious class structure, shown in the scene where Francis bumps into a passer by is testament to the underlying tensions brought about by the different classes. Logan's apartment and decadent lifestyle should say something about our own carefree throwaway society. It's as if the story is telling us were on a downward spiral to destruction with none of us knowing or caring where it will all end. The dialogue is fine as are the action set pieces. The movie is really about a moral dilemma and the search for the truth rather than showing the viewer sci-fi. Thankfully the action isn't confined to plastic sets and the many outside shots work wonderfully well. Logan's realisation of what his society has become is damning and I found his effort to bring it to an end gave the movie a satisfying conclusion. It reminded me of Planet of the Apes but Logan, at least, has something to smile about at the end.
