Leave your thoughts about Looker.
| Film Freak CentralBill ChambersLooker's surface pleasures are undeniable |
| VarietyVariety StaffA silly and unconvincing contempo sci-fi thriller. |
| Creative LoafingMatt BrunsonSlightly easier to take than such Crichton duds as Runaway and Congo. |
| eFilmCritic.comScott WeinbergHopelessly outdated and borderline ridiculous medical thriller about cloned fashion models. |
| Movie MetropolisJohn J. PuccioIf Crichton meant Looker as a satiric comedy, as he says he did, it doesn't come off as a very pointed or very funny one. |
| The New York TimesVincent CanbyThe premise, though, is the only satisfying thing about Looker, which Mr. Crichton has directed from his own original, stupifyingly nonsensical screenplay. |
| User ReviewDoug JLarry Roberts (Albert Finney) is a successful plastic surgeon who becomes suspicious that larger forces are at work after several of his patients die mysteriously. He eventually uncovers a shadowy corporation that may hold the key to the unexplained deaths. But can one man block the powerful conspiracy before another woman dies? James Coburn and Susan Dey co-star in Michael Crichton's medical thriller. |
| User ReviewRussell JI loved this flick and the required stretch of the imagination, wasn't that far fetched for me. Consider this film in light of current and improving CGI technology. If/when the technology is good enough, flesh and blood actors could become obsolete. Think of it: being able to bring back to life some of the really, really great actors. Wow! And the current and not so recent past crop of so called "good actors", Are, well honestly and with very few exceptions, simply pitiful. I personally can't wait. â¢--⢠Russell Johnson. |

| User ReviewScott MClassic 80's movie by the same writer and director of the movie West World. I saw this movies when i was a kid in 1981 and recently watched it again. It still has cool scenes and 80's soundtrack that worth watching this great film. |
