About This Movie

The Onion's Future News From The Year 2137 is this quirky blend of comedy and sci-fi that spins a wild tale of a dystopian future. The satire is sharp, hitting you with absurdity that feels all too real in today’s world. The pacing is loose, letting the humor breathe, which sometimes feels like a slow burn but really adds to the overall atmosphere. The performances, albeit not by big names, have this raw edge that suits the chaotic world they inhabit. Practical effects are minimal but effective, bringing a certain charm to the desolation. It’s the kind of film that makes you chuckle while reflecting on society's potential downfall, and there’s a certain pleasure in its irreverent take on news cycles.
