not that anyone would read this

So first off, the message of the movie is maybe overdone. However, I think for the setting of the movie, it is something that most people can agree on. Some conservatives may feel that this movie is a direct attack on them, and i assure them that it should not be. The evil party in this movie is the conservative party, but it has taken a fascist sense in this portrayal. It also takes fills a more international role as it already uses the USA as a past failure. If there was one thing in that movie that made me think, it was that the USA could be subject to such chaos. Anyway, the message is rather inspiring and I think should be taken with an open mind. The problem displayed in this movie is more severe than today's quandaries are. It really is something to think about, but rather than to revolt when things really go wrong, start taking action today.. Write to your congressmen repeatedly about your opinions, vote, etc.. I digress, but i think you know what i mean.
I gave this movie a 6 because of these few things: story wasn't bad, lines were stirring at best but mostly average, acting was decent by most and very well done by ms. portman. the action was not breathtaking but it did somewhat satisfy. lastly, the ending of this message-dependent movie did not instill a lasting message. This was quite disappointing because I was expecting a very philosophical ending and the best they could come up with was a half-fast attempt at trying to summarize what the message was. This movie will most likely leave my memory banks quite soon and not have the slightest impression on me.
