    A dystopian response to extreme measures taken due to overpopulation.

    The very obvious ideas within the film and the main message suggests that it is a social commentary on consumer culture and entitlement.

    Overall outstanding- Ralph Fiennes is a real favourite.

    In a Donnie Darko-esque manner I was left in parts thinking “what the fuck am I watching” as a huge alien resembling a giant vagina flew across the screen but I also felt intellectually challenged.

    Overall good move- thought provoking and vagina alien all very good!
