Perhaps the main drawback of the film is its ending. Too much pathos, from which distorts. However, if we discard it, we will get a very high quality and dynamic film with an excellent soundtrack, conveying the atmosphere of the times. Moreover, the most important thing is that when viewing a picture you believe in what is shown, there is no props. The society of the future is a crowd with base desires and lack of will, from which the totalitarian regime sculpts everything that it pleases; bifurcation of society on dirty ragged workers and oligarchs with retinue sycophants; the absolute power of omnipotent television that controls the minds of people; brutal game in the spirit of time with brutal heroes. All this, in my opinion, creates the atmosphere and the main highlight of the film, plus the great game of the great actor, without which the film would have lost exactly half.
