Millennium (1989)

A devastating plane crash leaves dedicated NTSB investigator Bill Smith with a mystery to solve. Was it the result of human error or a computer malfunction? To further complicate matters a second mystery walks into his life, but that one walks on high heels.
It takes a while to surface, but when it does the science fiction in Millennium doesn't hold back. Some very intriguing ideas share airspace with wild concepts and the film, from the director of Logan’s Run (1976), seemed as if it would be another classic. The final two minutes are stupid and put paid to that idea, but everything prior to it is quality.
