The interesting use of A/V tech and techniques is a cool gimmick in this early eighties thriller, and the story is interesting, but the pacing is uneven and the characters are far too earnest (especially travolta).
This historical treatise has a lot of notoriety but I found it unnecessarily dense, and ultimately flawed, in that its focus on states and state power ignores a related discussion of capitalist power, such that altho there is a useful perspective to glean here about how a drive for social legibility can transform a society, I wouldn't recommend the book overall.
