I was so impressed with this movie, I went on to read the FOUR book dystopian adventure of which, this is the first book. I think this movie is much better than the book....the only downside being, that so much of significance happens in the last 10/15 minutes of the film - that it is hard to process / reflect properly on it all. Hence, the advantage of having it on DVD or Blu Ray to savour it properly. There are some spiritual truths beautifully captured in this story. It predates the current dystopian flood of movies like "The Hunger Games" and the "Divergent" series, by about 20 years - so do not compare it to those. It is NOT as high-tech and adrenaline-fuelled - but for those who sense/know there is so much more to Life than surface living....this is a sweet treat. Great "Zavvi" service as ever.
