A couple moves to a quiet and friendly town, but the wife, with no job and her kids grown up, has enough free time to be unhappy.
Many movies build very slowly, and this one comes from a time when that was acceptable. So if you can handle have the patience to not fidget while you wait for “the big reveal” then you will definitely like this.
Based on The Stepford Wives – (1972 book), by Ira Levin

Nothing could possibly go wrong in an amusement park populated by robots.
A good-ish movie, which must have been spectacular at the time because of its original themes and spectacular presentation. It holds up very well over the few centuries since its release.

After a disaster, a pleasure theme park re-opens with a new population of robots.
