I rented this movie on New Year's Eve. It's strange, it's dark, it's twisted, it's confusing, it's filled with dark humor......it's one of the greatest movies ever made. The film is set in a dystopian future as if it would have looked had it been imagined in the 1940's and satires technology, the government and many other things. If you haven't seen it, you MUST at least rent it. Whether it be iTunes, Amazon Instant Video, whatever!

My favorite thing about the film was the score by Michael Kamen (one of his best works). And after watching the film I think I can relate to Sam Lowry a little too much personality wise.
