    I guess you skipped the first half of the movie. You might be exactly who the movie is making fun of.

      No I’ve seen the entire film, and believe that at potent a satire it is.

      It fails for two reasons

      1. Tech bros who took the wrong message and believed they needed to bring back eugenics to save the world.
      2. The Bad Future sadly looks more optimistic than the one we got in real life.
