First of all, in terms of content, to be honest, as a comedy, it's really not funny.... But the movie is good at his setting angle, which is thought-provoking. We seem to take it for granted that the future of mankind will only get better and better, while ignoring that the future is unknown, there are many roads in front of us, not "all roads lead to Rome", not every road leads to the light with beautiful. One of the things that sets humans apart from other animals is the ability to think, and to make choices by thinking, not just "natural" to survive and reproduce. What is said in the film is that the more highly educated and richer people are, the more inclined they are to have no offspring, while the mediocre people are reborn without any scruples; it is precisely the conclusion after human thinking that makes human beings. The future has more possibilities and is "controllable" to a certain extent, that is, every decision we make affects our future. In fact, the future in the film has shown a tendency today. Not only developed countries like the United States, but also China after the introduction of the two-child policy a while ago, the general response is to have only one child, or simply do not want to have one; there are also many DINK families in society. For us, the decline in birth rates is more than simply an aging society, and if we don't pay attention, there is a good chance that the stupidity in the film is our future.

    Although the film itself is mediocre, it raises a very deep question

Idiocracy quotes

  • Pvt. Joe Bowers: [addressing Congress] ... And there was a time in this country, a long time ago, when reading wasn't just for fags and neither was writing. People wrote books and movies, movies that had stories so you cared whose ass it was and why it was farting, and I believe that time can come again!
