My favorite sci-fi movie hands-down! Released right at the start of the sci-fi boom of the 1970s, "The Andromeda Strain" favors story above all else while still managing to be VERY visually appealing. The dialogue sells this story, with each character speaking as though the outbreak is very real and stopping it being of the highest importance...although the US government has their own reasons for wanting the infection studied. This is thought-provoking entertainment not for those who want thrill over substance.
Be careful...you might just learn something watching this...😁
