Futureworld [Region 2] Reviews:
The widescreen R2 Spanish DVD is cut
2007-10-11 - Films buffs will want to know that the Spanish R2 'Mundo Futuro' DVD is missing footage. There are four cuts totaling 2.5 minutes of missing footage:

1. The pre-credit sequence is missing.
2. Some dialoge during the press invite, round table scene.
3. When Peter Fonda explores the remains of Westworld.
4. Dialogue at the very end.

Until a better version is released, your best bet is to pick up the R2 UK full frame edition which includes all of the above cuts.

Campy and interesting..
2007-02-16 - ..a good follow up to WESTWORLD. Some of the acting is subpar, but, what do u expect when most of the roles are android characters. This is a good movie to settle down with, when u r in a hankerin' for a big bowl of buttered popcorn, and there is nothing worth watching on cable/tv.

Westworld revisted
2007-01-10 - the sequel to Westworld, Blythe Danner has a dream about the "gunslinger" Yul Brenner and that's all you'll see of him. The movie itself is about Delos, the grand technologically advanced vacationland that has worked out the mishaps that shut them down in Westworld. Peter Fonda and Blythe Danner are journalists covering the grand re-opening of Delos but are restricted as to what they are "allowed" to record or photograph. Watch out for those robots that want to "replicate" then eliminate their double!

a very good followup to westworld
2006-05-05 - peter fonda is a very underrated actor,all through the 70's he stared in some of the best low-buget movies ever made. futureworld starts some years after the westworld disaster. delos is back and running and the bugs that caused the first mishap are taken care of but still people aren't coming back as fast as delos would like so among others peter fonda and blythe danner go to take a tour. fonda wants to find out what a friend ment when he said delos after being stabed.
well as you can guess something is up but not what you think,they take a different corse and the it becomes a political thriller that works quite well.fonda has a natural charm like his father but much more of an everyday charm than henry had, and he never rubs you the wrong way like jane does. his career needs to be looked at again,he really is much better than they give him credit for>

One of Fonda's Finest
2006-01-23 - The more I see of Peter Fonda's 70s films the more I'm beginning to feel that he had a more interesting career than either his father or his sister during that decade. In FUTUREWORLD he's a seasoned print journalist who's constantly comparing his prowess with the superficial nose for news displayed by his adorable ex-girlfriend "Socks," played with elan by a game Blythe Danner. The two of them clash often and frequently during the first half of the movie, but then like HIS GIRL FRIDAY they decide to lie down with the lambs and from then on their chemistry grows by leaps and bounds. One needs the other's talents, and Fonda and Danner fully inhabit the characters of Tracy ("Socks") and Chuck. They go to FUTUREWORLD on an all expense paid business trip to drum up publicity for the 1.5 billion dollar dream vacation resort, which had died a death in the wake of the WESTWORLD debacle. It seems that world leaders are arriving in droves to escape earthly problems, and Peter Fonda begins to suspect that, just like roach motel, you can Czech in to FUTUREWORLD but you can't Czech out.

Some have said that the production values of FUTUREWORLD betray a poverty of MGM resources. I think on the contrary it looks more expen$ive than WESTWORLD. It can't have been cheap to hire Yul Brynner to do that strange dream tango. Someone told me that they probably only had Brynner's services for one weekend, or else he died in the middle of filming because otherwise, why not give him a bigger part? It would have been awesome if he had come out at the end, as the gunslinger, to kill all the robots who wanted (spoilers ahead) to replace all the world leaders with Delos-friendly hybrids.

The acting was great all the way through, and the love story between the Stuart Margolin character and his friend, robot Clark (named after Clark Kent, the "man of steel") was heartbreaking, worthy of Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhall in BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN. It's rare to find a good gay love story in the middle of a 1970s sci fi actioner, but here you go, if it had teeth it would bite you.
