Not For Dummies

Rating: 10/10 (16 November 2017)

Can't help but notice this movie seems to have been targeted for destruction (or, 'retirement') as soon as it was released. The reason is simple: The film was advertised as an action piece and it's actually a rather thoughtful, meandering piece about a society where total alienation has been achieved. It's depressing and beautiful to watch, which is the combination the first film put together so well.
The folks who want to see explosions, I call them dummies and I don't apologize for it, have really helped sink this movie. Just look at the positive reviews and how many people have down-voted them. This is the result of the dummies feeling duped and insecure because they didn't understand what they were watching. If your IQ has at least two digits, don't believe the anti-hype. This is a film that will be discussed for years to come.
