Oblivion? It was all right, and I recommend it, but I wouldn't call it a mandatory watch, it didn't have any special message

Oh? And you're the authority on that?

The question you are trying to ask is "what special message do you see in that movie?"

Of course my friend, let me tell you.

Oblivion has this very nice plot twist where the main character was actually

Tap for spoilerHelping the aliens gut the planet while thinking he was saving humanity. He's one of the most planet sized helpful idiots I have ever seen. So yes, you don't want to be him so think twice before you act on your assumption of reality but rather think for yourself.

I do agree though that its not necessarily the same league as the others. But seeing people acting the way they do, they must be submitted to 24/7 reeducation on freedom, privacy, healthy relationships, democracy, etc.

Well yes, I am the authority on my opinions, just like anyone else is on theirs.

That's what I mean, I don't think it belongs next to Matrix or 12 Monkeys. It's a run of the mill Tom Cruise action film. Very enjoyable, but it doesn't break any new ground, in my opinion.
