Thoughtful and Entertaining - but Politically simplistic

Rating: 7/10 (20 May 2009)

I enjoyed this movie, the acting, story, how it was told, and the theme...but there was one major aspect that weakened it...the focus on the "Cnservative" party in the UK as the source of the problem I think this kind of reflects the simple, mindless bias of socialists...for some reason they believe that tyranny is the purvue of the "right"...when history has demonstrated countless times that statism/socialism/communism has produced the worst murderers in history...Stalin/Mao/Hitler so I was intellectually turned off by the references to the "Conservative" party in the UK but I was encouraged by the theme: People should not be afraid of their governments. Governments should be afraid of their people.
and the People should be specially wary of governments that claim to want to "help" them as Ronald Reagan said: "The most terrifying words in the English language are: I'm from the government and I'm here to help."
