I got free ticket so I went to check it out.(I live in Finland)
Some people(in the USA) are really mad over this movie, some are quite happy.
I have suspicion that this extreme contrast is all about politics, not movie content that much.
I guess some hate movie because they see themself in the movie, its not nice to identify yuorself as bad guys.
Many characters are total stereotypes, like chessman who can do only certain things. But one person changes his vision and its Mr. V and there I would say lays one key thing of this movie. Other is to show people what world might turn in worst case, bit like Moore's warnings in heavy multiply.
Former Afgan regime wasnt very kind to other beliefs, in this movie owning wrong holy book will cost your life. Hollywood favourite subject totalitarianism is the main stage but content is quite potential view of the future. That makes this movie very hot in some countries like USA and UK where terror laws are in motion.
Because its Wachowski movie, there is most likely all sort of hidden messages and layers that I simply could not see. So its not wise to give any final verdicts over it yet.
