This is an interesting movie about a society where everyone takes medication on a daily basis so no one has emotion and for authorities to keep everyone in check. For people who believe more that ADHD is a personality rather than a disability, illness or disease it is an interesting take on where we could be headed given the boxes we are all stuffed into these days, the control of governments world wide and more and more rights taken away. It is fantasy Sci Fi but some elements stood out to me.

I'll have to check it out. I always love a good (even a bad actually) sci-fi or fantasy!
A friend is having me pick up "no blade of grass" on DVD on ebay for him. I had never heard of it before but it sounds great!
I love this movie! It is a common subconscience fear of many people: Too strict of a control by those in power. A few scenes made me cry: Burning of the Mona Lisa, the murder of Cleric Partidge by Cleric Preston, when Preston hears Ludwig Van Beethoven's: First Movement of the 9th Symphony, and Mary O'Brian's execution.using meds to control society is a common theme. check out (the book) 'brave new world', and the george lucas movie 'thx 1138'.
I'll have to look them up. I'll probibly never get around to reading the book though................ I could count on one hand how many books I've read from cover to cover .
I'll certainly look to seeing the movie though.
It is all about Population control!
