The Truman Show is the OG red-pill movie.
You can look at it as the individual escaping lies, sure, but also as a critique on the obsession with T.V. in general. Mass-advertising, corporate profit-over-people incentive etc...
There are so many good scenes in it. So many quoteable lines.
So much better than The Matrix. The only thing that film has is the "red-pill, blue-pill" thing.
@beardalaxy is it a comedy tho?
If it's a comedy, it's a comedy-drama.
@Aldo2 yeah i'd say it's a comedy still
@Aldo2 the Truman show is one of the most excellently crafted comedies out there
