decent possibilities pulled into a black hole of poor direction - The Black Hole review by GJ
Just watched it recently and it's not as bad as I remember it . It's quite a serious film for the post star wars late 70s sci-fi period
The problem is poor static direction . The actors have nothing to do so they either chew the scenery or act in a comatose state . Films of this type are morality plays and if the script had attempted to really push the mortality and immortality theme using each character a lot more , then we would have a better film . Unfortunately this film will only be remembered for poor acting and robots cashing in on the star wars craze .
On the plus side the production design is very good and some visuals still hold up and the actors are put through a physical workout particularly in anti gravity scenes
