Up until part 3 I was going to give this a 4, Julia was infuriating and painted to be this sex-obsessed villain. But after the Ministry of Love,  I truly loved the revaluations that she went through. I truly felt transported, I think a far better ending than 1984. Also when she met Big Brother I think I would’ve reacted the same way if I met our “Big Brother” now. Also in part 3 it brings hope but also an understanding that even the people fighting the “party” may not always be the savoirs you hoped for them to be.
