About
You may enjoy this if you like offbeat, surreal sci‑fi satire about advertising and control, closer to a strange allegory than an action ride; Not for you if you want a clear, fast thriller like The Titan.
Pros: bold anti-consumerism idea; weird imaginative visuals; thought-provoking themes | Cons: messy hard-to-follow plot; heavy-handed narration; slow build little action
