Ambitious pic occasionally creaks under the weight of strained metaphors, but intelligent talking heads and engagingly shambolic cartoons conquer unwieldy narrative and sporadic glibness.
By injecting such serious issues with a killer dosage of humour, [director] Petty keeps the whole thing energised and interesting, making it perfect for those who hate more 'academically' ponderous fare.
The film's greatest achievement is not the political commentary or even satire; it is in turning this material into cinematic entertainment with an acidic touch, combining visuals and audio elements with verve.
