The movie was pretty good up until the end, when it seemed to hammer the "moral" message that humanity, in order to prevent destructive violence and cruelty, must subjugate itself to a fascist authority assigned to keep society in check. I don't like the idea that human passions and emotions should come second in priority to safety and harmonious coexistence. We've seen that idea applied by certain governments in real life, and all that resulted was oppressive dictatorship.
