DVD Synopsis

Mike Judge wrote and directed this offbeat sci-fi comedy which gives a new meaning to the expression "people are getting dumber all the time." In 2005, Pvt. Joe Bowers (Luke Wilson) is a soldier chosen to take part in a secret military scientific experiment in which he will be put into induced hibernation for one year, along with a woman named Rita (Maya Rudolph). Bowers is chosen for the assignment because he is statistically the most average man in the Army, while Rita is a hooker ordered to do some community service; however, Bowers and Rita are forgotten when the military base where the experiment took place is closed down, and when they wake up in the year 2505, Bowers finds himself living in a society where intelligence has taken such a landslide he's now the smartest man in the world. Can Bowers save America from its own remarkable stupidity, and he can he get the dunderheads around him to believe what he says? Produced under the title 3001, Idiocracy also stars Dax Shepard as Bowers's numb-skull lawyer, Stephen Root as a judge, and Terry Crews as Camacho, a former porn star and professional wrestler who is now president of the United States. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

This movie is not only very funny but also very smart. Unlike almost every science fiction film I've ever seen, the writers actually seem to understand some of how evolution actually works and applied it in a very funny (and hopefully unlikely) situation. It is also far better than most of what is passed off as parody these days, with some great satiric jabs at popular culture and consumerism. This is a must-see!

What would the world be like if the intelligent extincted themselves? I loved the primise of the what the world would be like if the smart kept putting off reproducing for their careers, and the lesser intelligent doing what comes fun! and reproducing like rabbits. I thought the movie was clever by looking at this what if and keeping it so one sided. Teenage boy mentality run a muck and rules the world!
