Analysis on the movie Idiocracy

Introduction

Indeed, Idiocracy is a message movie. It presents a different perspective of message. It shows that message is a forthright, honest, and challenging manner rather than pandering audience. The satirical message of Idiocracy is that the ignorant people may outbreed the intellectual skills. This is the premise of the movie Idiocracy, in which the story focuses on the soldier Joe Bauers, an average man, chosen as a guinea pig for an experiment in hibernation. He is a top-secret U.S. Army personnel aiming at the preservation of the best soldiers for their re-use in battle, in the future (Gibson, p.123).

Joe is certainly not one of these individuals: he is an archivist lazy and unambitious person, who spends his time in watching TV. It is so insignificant that when the experiment is closed (to minimize the scandal in which General Collins is involved in covert operations chief, accused of aiding and abetting prostitution), he is simply forgotten cryogenics in his coffin, along with Rita, a girl bought by the same Collins, also guinea pigs for the experiment of hibernation (Judge, p.66).

Confused and alienated, the military will end up in prison at first and then, because of his IQ higher, is sent directly to the White House, in the role of principal adviser to the president.

The intensity of making future is completely occupied with morons. It is stern, difficult, strong and tough for captivating steps. The key character of idiocracy, learns to take responsibility, and move toward be a leader. However, movie is representing this is what, which can be happened in idiots' world. Though, it is quite difficult to contextualize this message in a positive view (Judge, p.66).

However, the positive model of idiocracy represents a disciplinary, decent model that refers as a man of principle. He is responsible and likely to serve for others. However, there is not as such fight; movie explores comedic scuffling, fighting and wafting to the groin. Police beat a character that is also a funny part of the movie.
