Somehow never got around to see it yet!

Is it a must-have, guys?

Boutique labels rule and it's gonna look stunning.
If you enjoy dystopian films, end of the world scenarios. Yes. It has quite a few flaws in terms of it's overall imagining and lack of budget but at the same time raised pertinent Malthusian like questions which were very much in vogue at the time and still are to a degree given how savagely and foolishly we are still attacking the natural world. While population growth is slowing the attack on resources continues unabated.
