Movie Review: Idiocracy

on Jan 6, 2014 in Blog | 1 comment

Idiocracy DVD coverThe 2006 movie Idiocracy, written and directed by Mike Judge (creator of Beavis & Butthead and King of the Hill), is considered to be a comedy, but we found it to be an astoundingly, and disturbingly, accurate preview of where humanity is headed IF we don’t make some drastic changes ASAP! (NOTE: If you choose to watch this movie, please be forewarned that it is quite vulgar. It is NOT appropriate for children and may be offensive to many adults.) The vulgarity is not gratuitous, though. It is actually important to show the result of the continued downward spiral of society. If we continue on our current path, our world could easily deteriorate into something much like that depicted in Idiocracy, a world devoid of all morals, intelligence and reason. While some find humor in this film, we believe it is worth watching from a purely sociological standpoint. One can see many parallels to current trends, behaviors and ideologies. It underscores our mission to encourage people to use their brains to avoid such an outcome.
