It's flawed, sure (the film does leave it a bit too long before telling you what the f
uck's going on in plain English, and it does get laughable towards the end - not the original intention, I'm guessing), but this is still an awesome film. It's fun to try and count what it had some sort of influence on in future sci-fi/fiction works of TV and cinema. I saw the Matrix, V For Vendetta, Buffy and Inception (and I'm sure even more besides) myself...
