Couldn't you argue that the movie represented the outcome of an out of control, tyrannical government which had no checks or balances?

Yes. It had the kind of out of control, tyrannical government that a leftwinger might imagine you'd get (incorrectly, of course) if there were no checks or balances to keep Republicans from having their evil way. At least that's how I saw it.

I liked it. There's a lot of gore, cool weapons, interesting fight scenes and leave it to a bunch of Mexicans to try and illegally immigrate to a space station.
It's far from perfect but it's fun. |

I found a lot of similarities of the Matrix to it. My mind is still getting blown, though I've been out of the theater for 20 minutes or so. |

Not sure if it's been discussed, but to me, it's basically an answer to the Atlas Shrugged mentality. If the rich try to leave us behind, we will eventually **** them up.

The rich will always need the poor or middle class. They do they jobs the rich dont want to do.

I expected better since I liked District 9. Not enough depth and Damon wasn't much of a badass. 5/10
