Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is definitely a dated, "mod" movie. Like most period, or sci-fi movies, it can't help but retain tons of giveaways to the contemporary time in which it was made. I guess that's a bit of the fun of this production. The story can be a bit, well, much. If you keep an open mind, like Sean Connery and like the 70's you'll have a goodtime with this one. If you don't like any of the above, please don't get it because you'll most likely be disappointed.

strange but beautiful movie here...made in a pure 1970s sci-fi style. the plot is secondary to the brilliant and often breath-taking imagery and that's where the fans of this movie break from the 'movie critics' looking for the linear and 'easy' viewing. Zardoz takes a more artistic direction closer to 2001 than Star Wars. anyhow, watch w/an open mind and climb in the Stone Head for a couple hours.

To make a long story short, 'Zardoz' is one of the most ridiculous and stupid films ever made. I cannot believe Sean Connery associated himself with this project, and even more so that John Boorman directed it. A nice anamorphic widescreen transfer doesn't make this film any better.
