1月9日 Are We Not Men? 'Idiocracy'
Mike Judge’s "Idiocracy" was one of the greatest films of last year. And not just one the greatest films barely anyone saw, but one of the greatest satires to hit screens in a long time.
Truly, the movie could be paired as a double feature with Alfonso Cuarón’s "Children of Men." Only, unlike the lack of children of Cuarón’s tale, there’s too many kids in the dystopian future of "Idiocracy"—kids and adults who are dumb— really dumb. And yet, for anyone who’s walked among the masses in a strip mall, they’re all believably dumb.
You might have heard the story behind Judge's comedy (released today on DVD)— it was shelved a few years after completion and released by Twentieth Century Fox as a throw-away, a let’s-forget-this-movie-was-ever-made dump. No advance word, no posters, no trailers, nothing. Why? No one knows for sure, but I’m thinking that attacking Starbucks, Fuddruckers, Carl’s Jr. and Costco had something to do with it.
Read the rest of my review here. And watch the movie. Make it the hit it should have been.
