Dorathen Better Late Then Never

Kidskycom It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.

Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

energybill Function: noun. Definition: a form of government in which a country or territory is run by fools. The great irony of a film like Idiocracy is that when we take the film to its logical conclusion, 99 per cent of Americans should be sterilized. And if you spent 90 minutes watching this movie instead of studying quantum mechanics or something, that probably includes you.... ha ha .... i love this film!!

rkhen Saw this for the first time tonight; almost creeped out how accurate it is. Or was? (It was released over ten years ago.) Somehow in 2006 Mike Judge saw it all coming. Particularly striking was his understanding that middle school values ("He's wrong cuz he got his ass kicked!!") would become standard in American culture. And that professional wrestling and rap aesthetics, including the way those worlds view women, would become mainstream and respectable. I'm not sure the central premise -- that stupid people outbreed smart ones -- is watertight. Seems to me most of the Idiocracy types I know come from families of 1 to 3 children. Rather, it seems that folks who should know better have been converted to trailer park values. Or maybe it's all that Gatorade. Anyway, if you haven't seen Idiocracy, see it now. You'll be blown away by how incredibly accurately it portrays current American society and its economy. And if you have seen it, but not recently, see it again. Sorry to get all faggy on ya, bra.

gamergcfan The beginning part is fresh and funny. The later part is more emotionally resonant and dramatic. However, the middle part is a bit boring because the joke is stretched there, and it runs out of ideas.It is a mix between a satirical comedy and a sociological analysis of what an unintelligent society would be like. It is funny and it effectively analyzes a future dystopic society. What prevents me from giving this higher than a 6? It's not hilarious, and it felt a little boring at times, particularly in the middle. The joke felt overlong, and it ran out of good material especially around the middle.Fortunately, the movie is only 84 minutes, as it felt at times that the joke was stretched for too long.+ Funny at times (not hilarious, though)+ Interesting sociology relating to unintelligenceOverlong (even at 84 minutes)Can get a bit boringScore: 6

Imdbidia Idiocracy is a very funny movie, really hilarious at times, that depicts a near future where people and society have involved into a bunch of brainwashed illiterate idiots. The settings are a bit theatrical but it really works well to showcase the story. The dialogues, play of words, and the items of misspelling are really funny.Despite the fun and the silliness, Idiocracy is a metaphor of our modern world, of where our modern world is heading to, and a very clever critique of the exaltation and institutionalisation of idiocy, money over education and skills, and the proliferation of rudeness and bad manners as the new normal way of being.Luke Wilson is always great a playing ridiculous characters with conviction, and this is the case also here. Terry Crews makes a hilarious president, Dax Sheperd plays the perfect good-hearted idiot, and Maya Rudolf is very sweet as the naughty 'painter'. Overall, the cast is very good and they all contribute to the film being so enjoyable.This movie is totally unpretentious and very funny, but with a very serious important embedded message if you bother to scratch underneath the silly surface.
