Hard, raw, very fast and to the point. Its vulgar, ultra-modern and pangs reality.

There are others like it but for mine none so for the veiwer characters, not the struggling mercenary/convict in armed combat fighting for their freedom.

Three main relms considered in this flick to build characters with, and it was slow going on this front instead directing most attention to explaining/describing the obvious predicament of seven sins humanity at this futuristic time frame.

#The game 'Slayers'-convicts/death roe mates as 'top comatents' or 'background drones/enemy soldiers' with g.p.s. boundries and security personell.

#The game 'the society' -a avatar like relm of controled humans being played like charaters by players getting up to any and everything . ..yet in a area aswell.

#Real time -a sickening class society driven into free for all availability of ...too much, and crying for more, changing attitudes and the way human beings should behave as we have grown to learn and understand as civilizations have come and gone beneath our feet.

The refference to the "catch cry/ratings slogan".

...'the last stand Kabel' is an example of a reality pang keeping up with 'x-men' (targeting youths) marketing on sideline combining with cable "t.v." which is only just hanging in their on top of mass typicalization (brainwashing/educating the masses in what's the norm) in availability and censorships from commercial fields/genres.

Well in the futuristic multi billion dollar operation of home entertainment kickin in jobs in a similar gaming/social avatar relm called 'the society' the associations run wild with other plots possibilities. Such as cult/religious body snatcher beliefs (human possession) or such as electronic control of humans through technology (briefed in 'the manchurian candidate'-Denzel Washington and likened to the robotic control in 'Surrogates'-bruce willis).

Super alternative and right wing it gets directly to this kinda controversy comparred to the affor mentioned films that used two of the biggest names in hollywood skirting these shunned ways/beleifs as mumbo jumbo.

A low, nearly indie level budget and themes so strong they go above heads enough, to not see the left wing impacts holding ideas back to be as 'entertainxment only' concepts ...yet.

Gladly didn't rate well and probably flopped at box office but grossing $$ high enough to be a smack in the bank if not open one I'm sure, instead of trail behind the set of concepts then bluntly lift the whole lot. I sickeningly liked it a lot. God help us all.

I gotta dismiss critique/reveiwing after this and refresh because broke all rules of limmeted disclosure (k.i.s.s. K.eep I.t S.imple S.tupid) on this.
