Sick Product of a Sick System

A Masterpiece!

It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

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!!

Great movie with predictive qualities if you look at American politics today. Not all jokes are great and effects and probs are clealy cheap but that's not what this movie is about. People whining over the poor CGI or the fart/ass/fag-jokes are actually the main subject of this film. Considering budget an 8 out of 10 is a fair rating. I've seen movies with +100 times this budget doing way worse in storytelling, script/story, plot or overall writing so you will.

Full of funny comments and nice slang to learn so you can be really hip on the street. Like who don't wanna run around saying "go away... batin'..." or "I like money" or even "Carl Junior - F*** you... I'm eating"The acting and atmosphere around the entire movie are fantastic as it has a huge prop setup and almost no CGI. All designed for this movie and I'm still looking for those sweet satin polo shirts. If only they could be bought...If you like peeing your pants, while your laughing. Then IDIOCRAZY is just what you need. Because while you will be laughing, you will exercise. And exercise is good for you. So this movie is good for you.This movie has its own energy! That created a brand inside the movie which got so popular that they actually start selling it!What more do you need!?

There is so much I could write about this movie, but I think that the first three minutes sums it up perfectly. The uneducated and irresponsible are reproducing at much faster rates than educated and responsible people. Nowadays, with so many safety measures and warning labels, natural selection is not doing enough to kill off the stupid. As such, the general population is getting dumber and dumber. This movie is a phenomenal prediction of the future. Additionally, it does a great job at showing how unchecked capitalism can take over a culture, as demonstrated by the comical amounts of advertisements and sponsors on everything in the movie. I believe that there is one major reason that this movie did not do so well: It hits too close to home and that offends people. Nobody wants to feel stupid, yet we are all guilty of performing some "idiocies" demonstrated in this movie from time to time, like lazing in front of the television for hours or blindly following trends, not questioning the reason these trends exist in the first place. I put this movie on the same level as stories like "Fahrenheit 451" or "1984" because it makes people take a second look at their lives and question the reason that certain systems are in place. People don't like this reminder. People just want to live in their happy little bubble, continue to sit contentedly in their parlor and watch "Ow, my balls!" all day and have it be socially acceptable or even encouraged. I believe, however, that people NEED to be reminded to think for themselves and question the world around them and "Idiocracy" does this in a wonderfully silly way.
