Zardoz spelled backward doesn't make any more sense	1fatts 03/14/2007
Boy is this movie important! Just ask it. Sean Connery wears a diaper, walks barefoot and seeks enlightenment. Charlotte Rampling looks pained, but maybe because she's already seen the rushes. In the end, Sean guns most everybody down, for which they are all grateful. No. Really. They are. The move must be important because the camera lingers and lingers on every shot like a peeping tom with a brownie hanging around the dressing room. Just significant as all get out. It is a science fiction movie because it takes place somewhere we don't know for reasons we can't fathom with a plot we can't understand. Sean looks as silly in the diaper as everyone else.
