Not as bad as I expected

Rating: 5/10 (18 November 2013)

I was reluctant to see the film as I had been warned that it was brainless liberal propaganda for Obamacare. Nah.
It, yes, was brainless but in a harmless sort of way. Whatever liberal propaganda was there got overwhelmed by the horrid picture of Los Angeles overrun by criminal Hispanics. Not a pretty picture of immigration and would certainly be making the case for better immigration control.
The main piece of brainlessness was the focus on health care. Seems to me that the world of 2154 had more serious problems than access to high-tech health care. The whole society had come apart and I don't think you can, as the film does, blame it all on unequal distribution of health care. That made no sense. So once (spoiler) the rich agree, at gunpoint, to distribute free health care, everything is solved? Nah.
The action was good. The acting was adequate for this sort of film. The production values were solid with some very good special effects and a very dreary looking LA.
Don't look for a political message. If one was intended it is so murky as to be unseen. I could, however, see some Hispanic groups getting very upset over the portrayal of Hispanics in the movie.
