To what can this be compared?

Rating: 9/10 (14 September 1999)

I cannot think of any other film in which the imagery, and the claustrophobic atmosphere of the set design stayed with me for as long as this one did. That alone does not make this a great movie, but you cannot argue against it's impact on your senses.
I appreciate the fact that this film does not attempt to portray some pseudo-utopic view of our near future, but rather slams us between the eyes with it's brutal concept of human civilization not evolving to perfection, but rather continuing the downhill slide we find ourselves on now.
The incompatible ending was the only flaw.
