"How do I make people love me without affecting free will?" "When you've found an answer to that, come tell me." This part is actually pretty profound. The movie as a whole actually has a very real and deep message. Of course this was the early 2000s, around the time Jim Carrey started doing more serious roles. (Although Bruce Almighty is still pretty wacky).
It took a little while for the first actual live action element of this live action remake to appear. There was a lot of CGI, which I guess is expected, since there are so many fantastical elements. My main issue with the movie is that it slavishly followed the storyline of the original movie so closely that there was almost no actual new material, and even most of the gags were the same, except for a few here and there.
Definitely an interesting movie that capitalized on the nuclear craze of the '60s. Peter Sellers did a pretty good job playing three different characters. I actually didn't realize that he played Mandrake until afterwards.
I only watched the first two episodes, so keep that in mind when looking at my ratings. Would I continue watching? Probably not. It's just not that intriguing. What I do like about it is that it has post-apocalyptic people putting on a play and lighting candles, which is different that what you might usually think of.
