Hmm. Mixed feelings.
From technical execution standpoint, quite good, with the exception of the beginning—which feels slow and happenstance.
But, uh, in the current human Rights landscape it's not even a bittersweet fantasy: it feels like a joke, like it's taking a jab at 2024 and beyond. And I know, of course, that McQuiston did not intend this, but it puts a damper on the story anyways.
