Director: Mike Judge (writer, too)
Starring: Luke Wilson, Dax Shepard, Maya Rudolph
Tagline: The Future Is A No Brainer
Basic plot: Luke Wilson stars as Joe Bauers (Mr. Average American) who is chosen along with a prostitute named Rita to be the guinea pigs in an Army experiment about freezing humans. The base they are stored on is shut down and 500 years pass before they are "unfrozen" into an exquisitely "dumbed down" world.
Mike Judge is a genius. There is no disputing that fact. I have not enjoyed a movie so much in such a long time. It would be wrong of me to write a long review on the social criticism offered thru this 84 minute masterpiece. It is what it is, and it is fabulous. Watch it.
Favorite things:
1. The garbage avalanches.
2. Fuddruckers becoming Butt-Fuckers over 500 years - and it's still family dining!
3. Carl Jrs taking custody of children and sponsoring the Secretary of State
4. Rehabilitation - and the monster machine too large for the arena
HIGHLY Recommended.
