A scary reminder of how easily totalitarian ideas and ideals crop up in societies and take fierce hold.

Its accuracy goes hand-in-hand with its unobtrusive nature, perfectly creating the ordinariness of Orwell's dystopian nightmare in ways that unsettle you only in retrospect.

Slow moving and hard to follow. Not nearly as good as it should have been. Just go read the book instead.

Book-based tale has brutal political torture, violence, sex.

Solid version of the famous sci-fi novel. Big Brother again rules.

Better than to be expected adaptation of the book. Not bad, but nothing worthy writing Big Brother about.
