Rollerball (1975)


This is a fantastic movie, yet there is surprisng little action, and more social commentary. I found myself a little dissapointed not with the ending it self, but with how they presented it. Rollerball reminded me a lot of Gladiator, not because they play a deadly game, but because the main character has many similarities with the famous Maximus. I have no clue why this movie is rated R, as there is not ONE swear word, zero nudity, rather mild and mostly bloodless (but intense) violence. This movie suceeds as being a good movie, nothing more, nothing less.
