Soylent Green. 7/10.
Decent movie from 1973. Another one of those weird takes on the future. The year is 2012 and the earth is overpopulated. Greenhouse effect means there's hardly any crops. People eat synthetic food. Then a rich guy gets murdered for suspicious reasons...
The main character makes the whole movie. He's a cop who takes part of the scene of the crime with him. Liquor, real soap, vegetables... He's from the time where police still punched bad guys until they started talking.

Idiocracy. This is a cult classic in the making. Goddamn hilarious and dead on satire.

I just saw this recently as well. The movie itself wasn't the best constructed thing, but the general concept and the gags involved were outright brilliant and hilarious. I'm a big Mike Judge fan, and it's a shame this film didn't get the dues it deserved. Of course no production team will promote a film that basically calls its audience idiots.
