Brazil (1985) --Again, I usually don't blog about movies (much), after a small hiatus from Hollywood, I have found Netflix, not because I enjoy getting discs in the mail, and sending them back, but because of their online streaming service (there were a few series that weren't on Hulu, so I was struggling with the thought of paying for some premium site, when Netflix made it's way enough into my consciousness to persuade me to join). Anyway, I'm back to watching 2-4 movies a week the "old-fashioned" way (nothing like the 18-20 movies a week with Hollywood), and in the few hours that I have remaining in the rest of my day I can sometimes watch some streaming media from Hulu and Netflix --I do like watching films at 1.5x-2.0x speed again!
Brazil is an amazing film, had I seen it in 1985, it might have been my favorite movie until Matrix came along. I'm going to borrow a quote from a user [ mariogreymist ] on IMDB: "Brazil is a very cerebral film, so if you are thinking, "What does cerebral mean?" you can probably skip it. Anyone who expects to have a story clearly spelled out for them, and done so in a concise manner with little background interference will hate Brazil. Brazil is a film for those who want texture, emotional involvement and some sort of deeper meaning. Brazil is my favorite movie, but it is clearly not for everyone!"
I give it 5 out of 5 stars!
