Equals the movie was beautiful to look at but story was zzzz. Kristen "Twilight" Stewart & Nicholas Hoult (Warm Bodies and Beast in X-Men: First Class) play lovers in a dystopian future where feelings are not allowed and everyone wore PAP uniforms. Feelings are considered a disease that needs to be quashed with medication.
I thought Kristen Stewart played her stoned-out no-feeling role very well. Maybe she wasn't acting.
I think the movie was rated NC16 because no kid would be able to tahan the pace of this movie. Yes, it was slooooow.
Most of the fun came from identifying Singapore landmarks like Hort Park, Gardens by the Bay, and the Henderson Waves.
The movie looked like it was shot entirely at f1.2 because almost everything had shallow depth of field. Many many close-ups. Close ups of eyes, close ups of lashes, close ups of beautifully manicured nails…
I think I shall go and re-watch a better dystopian sci-fi movie like 1997's Gattaca. Soooo much better, that one.

Quotes mentioned:
"To know and not to know, to be conscious of complete truthfulness while telling carefully constructed lies, to hold simultaneously two opinions which canceled out, knowing them to be contradictory and believing in both of them, to use logic against logic, to repudiate morality while laying claim to it, to believe that democracy was impossible and that the Party was the guardian of democracy, to forget whatever it was necessary to forget, then to draw it back into memory again at the moment when it was needed, and then promptly to forget it again, and above all, to apply the same process to the process itself—that was the ultimate subtlety: consciously to induce unconsciousness, and then once again, to become unconscious of the act of hypnosis you had just performed. Even to understand the word—doublethink—involved the use of doublethink."
"If one is to rule and to continue ruling, one must be able to dislocate the sense of reality. For the secret of rulership is to combine a belief in one's own infallibility with the power to learn from past mistakes."
"Those who control the present, control the past, and those who control the past, control the future."
