As an American, this is an upbeat film that shows me what we could aspire to as a country.

I particularly enjoyed the role of President Camacho who refreshingly portrayed a rational, somewhat sensible leader, who, at the end of the day, listens to reason.

I would have never guessed that Idiocracy was an optimistic look at our future...

Correct, most people don’t realize that Idiocracy is actually a utopia

People rally to find the smartest person to help them with a real problem, give him the resources necessary to solve it and then he solved it and life improves

That’s a utopian fantasy if I’ve ever heard of it
