    Generation P is worth struggling through, even if it boggles you. In many ways, it's a keyhole into the future of the entire world.

    The movie contains enough fresh insanity and inventive visuals to make it an amusing cyberpunk extravaganza for most of its protracted running time.

    Delivers a brave, head-spinning commentary on the potency of advertising and the seduction of the soul.

    Generation P is long and incredibly dense, but it's never boring - it's too wild and unhinged. The more you know about the past 20 years of Russian history, the more you stand to "get" from its coded references, though as with the not-totally-dissimilar "Holy Motors," deciphering every frame might be beside the point.
