I think the film had some very interesting themes, but it has it's faults. The reason why Immigrants were being booted out was because they were being (unfairly) blamed for societys inability to reproduce. People were attacking each other were trying to achieve supremacy. They know they will have no legacy to hand down to their children, so they are trying to get as many riches as possible. Admittedly this side of the film was'nt handled the best and the ending was poor.

However it's location shooting was stunning. You really did believe that England was a war torn wasteland and some of the set pieces were some of the best I've ever seen. The car reversing through a chasing mob was brilliantly realised.

A flawed film yes, but definitely worth a watch.
