Review of The Formula

The Formula (1980)
6/10
This formula didn't work.

What a waste of talent.

George C Scott looked almost disinterested.

Brando looked and acted like a pretentious idiot.

Beatrice Straight must have felt lucky to be shot so early in the movie.

The editing was very poor and with such a complicated plot this only added to the sense of incomprehension that descended whilst watching this dire film.

It appeared that the whole story was some sort of warning about the way global conglomerates are controlling oil production and prices.

Why spend so much time and money to tell us something we could get from the front page of The Observer or The Independant?
