![]() ![]() On a technical level, “1984” is impressive, but that doesn’t change the fact that I hated every minute of this meandering, pompous and miserable movie!īefore I explain why I didn’t like this film, I’d like to point out that I’ve never read the original novel “1984.” I’ve picked up information about the story from other pieces of media (from the torture scene in “Star Trek: The Next Generation” to the plot of “Spectre”), but aside from references, I knew very little about the plot or characters, so I have no idea if this is an honest adaptation of the source material or not.ĭespite my unfamiliarity with “1984”, I knew going into the film that I wasn’t in for a treat. The 1984 adaptation of George Orwell’s acclaimed novel “1984” (published in 1949) is a brilliantly shot, powerfully acted and disturbingly relevant cautionary tale about the power of the media, the futility of war and the effects of a totalitarian society. ![]()
