| April 18, 2008 With a great mix of comedy and serious content, Brazil is a standout genre film that elevates the bar and makes for a truly worthwhile viewing experience.
Dystopian society films are often dark, nightmarish portraits of a society, but with this film we get something very different.
The story is about a man who doesn't really have much motivation or drive to move up in the world so his mother pulls strings to get him promoted. The dystopian genre is very interesting, and it's one that is always exciting to see what they'll come up with it.
Visually, the film is a marvel of art direction and miniatures flawlessly edited together. Brazil is great filmmaking and one of the finest dystopian society films I've seen.
Sam Lowry (Jonathan Pryce) is a harried technocrat in a futuristic society that is needlessly convoluted and inefficient.

Stuffy and extremely political, I found Brazil to be quite disappointing in the fact that most of it seems to serve as a kind of propaganda of sorts, desperately attempting to satirise things that have already been satirised. Drama, Directed by Terry Gilliam.
