Crimes of the Future.... Hrrrrrm....................
Not, a huge fan of this type of movies, the plot centers around the hypothetical disappearance of "pain" and rapid idiopathic evolutionary "tumors".
This is yet another "reality distortion" movie troupe which in trite fashion relies on a spontaneous acquisition of technology by "a species" that does not possess the cognition to process it. Not unlike super heroes. It's another derivation of, but instead of the display of g-friendly feats of physics bending, this film is about body-horror.
If we're at the edge of our intellect, it makes sense that these concepts are explored, but one can't help but feel it's inelegant, that the writer/director is haphazardly forcefully swapping labels on generally agreed upon objects.
The sky's not blue, it's ####, if you don't like it, you're not smart enough or at my level.
I guess, the main complaint here is that the logical basis behind the world building is not fully constructed, and only loosely strung together to support the scattered visual shock.
Just because some critical function, pain, a fundamental human boundary (to avoid pain), is removed, DOES NOT mean humans start to become irrational as portrayed.
Maybe the format is not enough. what could and couldn't be said in 2 hours, the constraint of budget, time, interest. hrrm... maybe.
AS IS, story's light. the reliance on gore to sell is lazy.
