## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worth reading if you enjoy Science Fiction and its phyche.
*by J***R on April 23, 2004*

I recommend anyone who is interested in Science Fiction to at least glance at this book. Yes, glance. What I enjoy most from this book is how it provides pictures of movie scenes, corresponding them with the points and theories presented. It does it in a way to make what may seem overbearing (to some people mind you) rather interesting and insightful. The visualizations help things 'click' so well. The reading becomes more and more bareable as you read on once you get used to the structure. It's great. Even if you don't like reading, buy it for the pictures it presents; just by looking at them and the small, bold explainations below will help you gain a whole new outlook on Science Fiction. Besides the visuals, I would say it is the best critical response of the Science Fiction film I have read. Other books I checked out seemed boring and unattractive. This book caught me when I looked at it. In fact, I was doing a paper in college for a History through Film class and my Instructor asked for the Catalog information. So I guess I'm not the only one. Other then that, the seriousness of the book gives the genre what it diserves while retaining your interest to read on. Most importantly, though, it helps clear up thoughts I've had for years and makes it presentable in words. Very gratifying. Check it out.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ great book
*by D***H on November 7, 2013*

great book and it was helpful last semester. i learned about film and how to be a good movie critic. would recommend this book to anyone.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ but I think to incredibly intelligent ends. Regardless of whether you think it's overdone
*by J***N on February 25, 2017*

Ignore the complaints about the second section. The academic jargon does get ramped up, but I think to incredibly intelligent ends. Regardless of whether you think it's overdone, there are ideas here which you will not encounter in your regular life and consequently there's only a risk that the second half of the book opens up your eye with regards to some very interesting trends in how science fiction operates. For example, Sobchack analyzes the movie 'Back to the Future' as being retrograde in the fact that they never get go to the future, but instead dwell within the fantastic small-town/sit-com Americana of the 50s, only to return to what is essentially an 80s reproduction of family ties, suggesting the incredible self-referentiality and lack of sense of history which is perpetrated by the Spielberg age of science fiction. I know. This isn't for everyone, but it's so freakin smart that I can't recommend the second half of the book highly enough.
