pretty interesting how the movie alluded to class/ race opression, goverment alterior motives, rogue security forces etc. etc. i feel it can defintely speak to some in todays political/ social climate.

i thought it was a bit shallow, plot wise. seemed like you only got the beginning of the story, probably setting up for a sequel though. I thought the movie got bogged down at a couple of points and could have been developed more rapidly rather than the slow lead up and relatively short climax.

not a bad movie by any means, i just wanted to toss out some of the negative points i noticed.
