Review – The Illustrated Man

This is nowhere near as good as the source collection of stories. Of course when they start with stories by Ray Bradbury, it's only natural to fall a bit short. But whatever chance they might have had is swiftly squandered on a lot of wasted screen time. For example, it takes nearly half an hour just to get past the opening bracket and on to the first actual story. The production also suffers from 70s era fuzzy visuals and laconic pacing. What a shame. Mildly amusing
