Users review: I went to see this movie misled by the high rating on IMDb. Unfortunately it looks like Hollywood makes movies for people with short memory. I admit I havent read the source book, but I guess I wouldnt, judging by what came out of it. I hereby venture myself in saying that the book is also a bad SciFi novel. It has way to obvious imports from well known themes that have been exploited to the brim by today (like the perfect society that sacrifices diversity for peace, the different guy that stands-up to the system, the genuine technology that controls individuals (poorly described, by the way), the fear confrontation ad the list could go on and on. It is not essentially bad to bring these themes in a movie, but I see nothing new, original here. So... if you have seen Equilibrum and the Hunger Games then you know it all. Movies today are just mobile phones... keep reproducing features from the competition, while it is supposed to be an art. Another thing cant stand in movies in general is the poor IT incursions. I am talking about the scene in which Jeanine is asked to turn off the control system which consists of a huge touch screen in which she just hits some cancel button. That was really pathetic... Anyone could have done that right? Another thing that I cant stand, is the cheap psychology things in these movies. They are all based on some sort of psychoanalysis which is long time deprecated in therapy. But it is somehow considered to be cool and trendy by producers to insert these kind of flavour into the movies to make it more profound. Or are they just as stupid and ignorants as the target viewers? Anyhow... to me, this is bad taste in art. If you want to really go for it, you must do way better that that and if you cant, then at least make it more interesting. It is also true that movies like Inception dont occur every month, but once they do... they set a trend and everybody will just take a byte of it. Dont get me wrong, it is a watchable movie, perhaps a little too long for its story, which, by the way, is very predictable and full of clichés. I read some users claiming it resembles The Hunger Games and so it is, especially with the modest ending that awkwardly announces a sequel. I could predict how the story developed and ended after the first 15 minutes and thats what makes this movie mediocre. Script is mediocre, but at least it does not abounds in stereotypes so its bearable. What can be said about acting... there is no acting in this kind of movies, you only need to be young and good looking, be able to learn your part and youre done. Its not that the actors are bad, but the movie itself is not based on any acting mastery and just because of that, the girl gets a plus for making something out of it. I am curious if the ratings will stay as high as now in time.
