Certainly not pitched at my age demographic, probably more likely my daughters, to me this seems like your usual dose of somewhat shallow woke-ism. 

I didn't linger too long but what I found ironic is how this film makes a pitch for "diversity" which always end up looking like "conformity". Join "tribe" A (the beautiful brainwashed technocrats) or B (the alleged non conformists agrarians) and its collectivism, not individuality, whichever way you cut it. 

Action is alright, acting is alright and special effects seem reasonable. I think a certain youthful viewer may like it but perhaps fail to appreciate, what's missing from the conversation.  

In summary, I see no overly positive message here. Perhaps aside from a rather simplistic rejection of physiological stereotypes. Whats more important is the right to true individuality, which extends beyond the superficial, to meaningful things like free speech and free expression. Its the loss of these basic freedoms that define us as free thinking unique human beings, in the name of conformity, that's truly ugly.

This movie is based on a 2005 novel and was a good movie. I can understand that some may not like it because it challenges their perception of the world. If you give it a chance and actually watch it without any preconceived notions, it is a good movie.
