Network (1976) – FilmAffinity

“Its shocking satire turned out to be eerily prescient”

“The film is immaculately cast (…) [It endures] as a brave, outspoken work”

“‘Network’ is typical of the cool intelligence of ’70s American cinema (…) Rating: ★★★★★ (out of 5)”

“‘Network’ will shake you up (…) Sidney Lumet’s direction is outstanding (…) [It] is a potent commercial blend of artful tirade, visual excitement and sociological horror.”

“[It] is certainly the most provocative and abrasive movie since ‘All the President’s Men’ (…) No performance is less than brilliant”

“What a rich and interesting movie this is (…) What it does accomplish is done so well, is seen so sharply, is presented so unforgivingly, that ‘Network’ will outlive a lot of tidier movies (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 4)”

“Brilliantly, cruelly funny (…) ‘Network’ can be faulted both for going too far and not far enough, but it’s also something that very few commercial films are these days. It’s alive.”
