Rod Steiger stars in this science fiction fantasy based on the writing of Ray Bradbury. Carl (Steiger) allowed a woman he loved to tattoo drawings over most of his body--which reveal scenes from the future to anyone who gazes at the imagery. Only one place on Carl's body isn't tattooed, and that spot will reveal a viewer's own future. Now, despite Carl's warning not to, a stranger can't resist the urge to gaze.

Film Frenzy

Matt Brunson

The wraparound sequences are sturdier than the three vignettes.

Miraculously, though, Jack Smight and his scriptwriter Howard Kreitsek have resisted the temptation to either simplify or betray, and their The llustrated Man (Warner-Pathe) is a new Bradbury story in all but author's credit.

Paul Schrader

The Illustrated Man substitutes ostentatious techniques for good storytelling.

Ken Hanke

Rod Steiger does what he can to anchor this slightly dreary and depressing film version of Ray Bradbury's The Illustrated Man.

Cinema em Cena

Pablo Villaça

Uma antologia mal disfarada de unidade narrativa, o filme terrivelmente datado e conta com um ritmo irregular, desperdiando o material original de Bradbury.
