Unsatisfactory

JulianDF from , 22nd August, 2008

Mussolini, 1984, The Killing Fields- they are all represented in this unsatisfactory look at the iron rule of oligarchy. Apart from the stars it has all the problems that would beset an arthouse movie, low budget, poor locations but the bottom line is that it doesnt really work. A film with a message, yes, but clumsily delivered and not entertaining on any level

Customer Review

A Customer from UK, 23rd June, 2008

This is not a very good film, if you have any awareness of things like 1984 or Animal Farm then you will not enjoy this film. The story is no brave new world and the subject matter has been covered far better in many other films.Very disappointing.
