A cult sci-fi noir movie

Rating: 10/10 (7 May 2006)

This is one of my favorite film. I saw it about 10 years ago, and the first thing that impressed me was the ambiance created. A futuristic and dark world, where rain is very present, as if to show the main character's mood (Dekerd). In fact he is not a hero, more like an anti-hero, with a strong moral dilemma and a mission imposed to him by his past and the perception that others have of him. This movie presents an interesting issue. Does Mankind have the right to kill sentien beings she created. Are these beings, for all that mater, just property?
This is not an easy movie to watch. Its story is a bit complicated, and requires the viewer to think about existential questions to fully grasp it's meaning. Further more the dark, glommy ambiance of the movie ads up a certain unrest.
