A worthwhile movie, not because it shows how nonconformity is good and worth it, but by how even when the system of ideal higher human society is built with everyone equal and driven by logic and reason, a human because he is a human, will always screw it up.

Blast from the Past (1999) - Rated 16 Oct 2025

One of the few films exploring the nurture vs. nature debate so clearly. It shows how isolation—when managed intellectually—can shape someone profoundly different from society’s norm. Raised on family values and deep repetition, the protagonist surpasses his teachers. It solidified my belief that controlled isolation can produce uniquely capable, intellectually advanced individuals, being far out performative of their peers in the society, because of the controlled isolation they went through.

La belle verte (1996) - Rated 16 Oct 2025

Just a very well positioned film of how our current human society is drowned in delusion and constant cognitive dissonance with human centrism.

Fight Club (1999) - Rated 16 Oct 2025

It is a nice story of how individuals themselves limit that they are capable of, based on what they think of themselves. It brings the aspect of being unapologetically violent to extreme, by which, showing what most films never manage to. How brutal life can be, even when a movie showcases it.

Phenomenon (1996) - Rated 16 Oct 2025

I really didn't care about the romance part of the film. Just the human behavior that followed the main character gaining extraterrestrial abilities. Shows how shameless human society is, and how shallow it is. This film is tragic. But tells You the truth about humans. How they always resent everything more capable than them, and are afraid of any changes in their established worldview. Only movies like this can showcase that well.

Gattaca (1997) - Rated 16 Oct 2025

Another movie proving the point of nurture being the one to rule everything else, even the best genetically gifted person, wouldn't risk doing what the main character did to get what he wanted. On the other hand also showing how inexcusable humans can be in their hunger for achieving their goals by whatever means possible.

Idiocracy (2006) - Rated 16 Oct 2025

Not the best film, but its point is true. How it doesn't go up from here, but down, regarding average human intelligence according to the trends we saw since 1970s.
