Sci-Fi Classic Review: ROLLERBALL (1975)

Rollerball is a groundbreaking mixture of sports and dystopic science-fiction that managed to excite audiences that were turning away from sci-fi in the mid-seventies.

If you're looking for a "review" in the traditional sense, then let me just say I like this movie, but it's not one of my favorites. This video, however, is a "review" in the literal sense (using the Miriam-Webster definition "a retrospective view or survey"), in that I'm going over the history of the film and its place in sci-fi cinema history.
