This movie was very Romanesque where society was totally controlled by an oppressive government and human depravity had become such that they enjoyed seeing other real people kill for enjoyment... scary because our freedoms are slowly being squelched and violence in entertainment is becoming the norm.. hoping that this isn't a movie about our imminent future.. Very well done... plus it shows how the human spirit yearns for freedom and defies those who would try to oppress it. Hope that the sequel is produced with the same quality ..
