MOVIE REVIEW
Luke Wilson, Maya Rudolph and Dax Shephard star in
Idiocracy, a surprisingly clever "dumb" movie from the director of cult classic Office Space. Wilson stars as an average Joe (named Joe) who is signed up for a military experiment to get frozen for one year. However, that one year turns into 500, and he is brought out of hibernation in a world where the stupid people in our society have out bred the smart ones to the point where there are only idiots left on the planet.
