Eric Braeden stars as Dr. Charles Forbin, who has created a supercomputer named Colossus, built solely for the purpose of controlling the nuclear defenses of the Western alliance. It isn't too long after, however, that the Russians announce that they too have built a similar computer for those same purposes on their side--Guardian. And when the two machines begin sharing information at a speed nobody can believe, an attempt is made to disable them.
This unfortunately just raises the machines' ire; and in retaliation, they launch their weapons at each other's home nations. The result is a chilling scenario that is potentially becoming all too real these days.
COLOSSUS: THE FORBIN PROJECT was not a big hit at the box office for various reasons. One is that its cast wasn't exactly well known. Another reason is that its ending isn't exactly a happy one. Still a third reason is that Universal had trouble trying to promote it in the wake of the huge success of Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY. The latter reason is obvious: Colossus and Guardian, like HAL in the Kubrick movie, become central characters here. The difference here is that while HAL malfunctions due to a programming conflict, Colossus and Guardian remain all too stable, convinced beyond a doubt that they know how to protect Mankind better than Man himself. As the computers point out: "One inevitable rule is that Mankind is his own worst enemy."
Joseph Sargent's direction is efficient, and the special effects work of Albert Whitlock still manages to work despite its obvious age. An overlooked gem in the sci-fi genre, this should be given a revival.

22/1/19：能唬电影小白们又方便影评人士一起糊弄门外汉的
摄影太过惊艳；匕首形状的门把手；树叶涌进大厅
可惜我没怎么读过莎翁作品，希望今年有时间补。黑白画面真美，布景和摄影也好似舞台剧。
观看名著障碍症再次发作。。。只能当美术课了。。。
电影的调色好好看啊～故事的最后完全不知道是什么
戳爺張揚自我的個性從來都是一以貫之的，這在他的作品中隨處可見。但是演電影不像出唱片，動動嘴耍個酷。電影中，故事情節和演技缺一不可！
没太看出来拍这版的价值是啥，影像当然好看，但并没在叙事上起到辅助作用，相比之下，《灯塔》的黑白摄影就有意义多了。
科恩兄弟解散后，最不科恩的科恩电影。被预告片骗了，本以为是默片，没想到话痨的受不了。实在想不明白为什么看这个电影耽误
青春伤痛文学，很老套的故事！ 不过是能够让人看下去的。 戳爷贡献了自己的美貌，我很开心。 二十七八的人了演起高中生还是那么得心应手。
骁勇善战却战不过心魔…舞台剧味道的演绎，而Mrs MacDuff演技太差劲了…
折磨麦克白和其夫人的是很多奇怪的声音，本片算是在麦克白改编的电影里最注重声音的一部，邓肯死时脚步声与水滴声，以及麦克白见女巫时乌鸦怪异的声音等，最创新的是声音。摄影上虽然好看，没有大创新，还是明暗对比那一套，受戏剧感的限制倒不如蜘蛛巢城有冲击力
1. 原来troye sivan这么帅；2. 原来troye sivan演技还挺自然XD电影本身很简单，但可能也是因为简单，有难得的干净
但是leon和pob是怎么回事！！？？你在逗我！！？？？太狗血了！！！！
现代的表演方式，风格鲜明的同时又不失与麦克白相衬的古典气息，属于旧事新说的优秀范本了。
画面挺青春，戳跟女闺蜜可以再合作一部，对手戏倒是挺自然的！
22/1/19：能唬电影小白们又方便影评人士一起糊弄门外汉的
科恩哥哥的單飛作，竟然看不到多少科恩兄弟的痕跡，更像是一首寫給Ingmar Bergman的情詩，在保留強烈舞台感的同時又電影感十足，充滿著疏離感。黑白攝影實在太美了，可以想象如果是影院、尤其是杜比影院觀看，該是如何驚為天人。
The Equalizer vs. Dr. Dre, for there are liars and swearers enough to beat the honest men and hang up them
这部剧作被改编的次数也太多了，科恩+华盛顿也没带来什么惊喜，甚至于过度舞台化的表现方式都显得有些俗套。
