 Posted: Mon, 13th Aug 2012 02:15 Post subject: Good dystopian movies? |
|
 |
I'm currently in the mood of watching dystopian/post-apocalyptic movies/utopian, any that you can recommend?
I've seen:
- 12 Monkeys
- Children of Men
- District 9
- Equilibrium
- The Matrix Trilogy
- Dark City
- The Fifth Element
- I, Robot
- Blade Runner
- The Book of Eli
Any decent ones that I've missed?

1984, I guess? Or read it if you havent instead
Catch 22 - Also here I would recommend the book.

You've already watched many awesome movies  . I'd add Mad Max, Strange Days, Minority Report, The Road, Total Recall (the original one of course  ), Fahrenheit 451
+ ∞

I wouldn't consider I, Robot a dystopian movie, more like an apocalyptic scenario from an utopian reality.
Also, the Book of Eli, really? That has to be among the worst movies that I've ever watched.

That's because you see movies like there's no tomorrow and you force yourself to watch bad ones. Pfft lol... if it's out, you probably have already seen it.

I am legend
The island (I found the first half excellent, and the second one turns into a typical michael bay movie, however it still deserves a watch if you enjoy these types of movies)
Repo men
Surrogates
