the film started with one of those annoying voice-overs that need to tell you (rather than show you) the rules and regulations of the land. and then it continued like that. on and on. every character spoke similarly. and the voice-over kept coming back to patronise us some more. i felt like i was attending a really dull and pompous lecture. zzzzzzzzzzzz.
besides, everything was a rip-off of the novel Nineteen-Eighty-Four. if you want to see that done properly, watch Terry Gilliam's Brazil. that one is funny too. and i believe things are only true if they somehow make you laugh. anything else is just mental masochism. hahahaa
