Poteva svilupparlo meglio :(

Rather bleak for my taste and quite past its prime but still interesting.

The ideas are solid. The writing is clunky but I say that about most fiction written decades before I was born. Didn't find the characters particularly compelling but the ideas are there and at the end of the day ideas are where sci-fi reigns supreme.

Great ideas, sloppy execution, incredibly wooden dialogue. A rare example of a film adaptation far exceeding the source material.
