jacobjohntaylor1 If you want to be a vegetarian that is fine with me. If you do not want to eat meat and keeps dogs and cats has pets and by meat to feed them that is fine with me. I will never be a vegetarian do not impose your life style on me. So the mean character in the this movie has to kill DVD monsters so people will stop wanting to by D.V.D.S. So if the mean character was real he would put the people who made this movie would be put out of business. And he make live like the wild animals we were meant to be. And if that happened we would have eat meat to survive and hurt your beloved cows Mr Bradshaw. This movie has an awful story line it very stupid. It fells to tell a good story.

shoobe01-1 ...but too painful to watch for me to care. Not because it's a bit B-movie cheap, or has poor VFX, or some of the actors sorta suck, or the overbearing made-for-SyFy movie music, but because it is just terrible. The main key thing to me is the total lack of reasonable storytelling. Every time something should be getting on with the story, a character stops to explain something about the plot to another character, or a news story explains it for us, or a full on and unashamed voice-over does it!

andy_mcm Well, I didn't enjoy it, but if you are a fan of 1950's Hollywood B movie films, then maybe you will. I didn't think it was possible to have such rubbish effects these days and I can't decide if it was a deliberate parody or simply the result of a tiny budget.Interesting to see it reflect real life in 1980s Britain, when it was gripped by the fear of BSE, also known as Mad Cow Disease. The mawkish love story was not interesting. The idea of Lenin as the first marketing guru was a new one on me and was interesting.However, the moral was clumsy and obvious, as were the effects. The credits at the end was about the most visually attractive thing in the film.Not for me.

bluefire-6 I was curious when I saw this movie listed on Netflix in the "Science Fiction/Fantasy" genre. Hardly. This is a political and cultural satire and allegory, a couple levels higher than Man Men. It could easily elude viewers bringing to it more literal expectations. The idea that the world is a conspiracy of brands isn't an entirely new one. Fifth Sense explored this theme in film and even earlier, Heinlein in his classic novel, The Man Who Sold the Moon. But Branded additionally gets into the contradictions of capitalism and communism, and their similarities -- especially total control in each case of the cultural milieu and the social conversation. Very heavy, especially the depiction of Belarus as a single well-integrated ad. The same could be said of the United States of America. Maybe even more so.The film's production qualities are excellent and the acting universally superior. I will recommend this film to all my friends who have the intellectual capacity for its appreciation.
