I've noticed many evangelical Christian's here are on fire accusing of this story to be anti-Christian. This story is e dry fundamental Christian wet dream as secretly or not so much , many would love to live in this future where "the word of god" was as "respected" as in this cautionary tale, Well movies and stories like this are important as they will help preventing futures like this when in fiction they depict the horrors of what a fundamentalist religious state can really be like. The story this book and movie tell is already a reality in some cultures and hopefully because of movies, books and tv series like this, will never happen in the west.
Although taking into consideration how the woke religion is infesting modern culture with their own fundamentalist beliefs I wouldn't be surprised to find a totalitarian regime like this to arrive in the near future. Particularly in the United States where bibble thumpers are a thing apart which would love to see a bibble ruled state , more than religion already rules that country.
As a book adaptation this movie does a good job , although I still think the recent tv series has perfected the whole horror of the concept.
Nevertheless this is still a great movie based on one of the best and most important novels ever written on par with 1984 when it comes to totalitarian regimes go. The handmaids tale is to American Christianity as 1984 is to modern woke lunacy.
So overall, an important movie, with great acting , well directed witch stands high in the sci-fi genre and it's even more relevant today than when it was made.

We need more movies like this that use humour to mirror the insanity of our woke reality.
Bill is perfect, the dialogues are spot on and the jokes are really on point. This is like a new " Idiocracy " for the woke era.
Fun characters, insane situations because they are based on reality and overall a fun movie. Not only the humor is perfect but its one of those scripts that hopefully will make people think while they are laughing.
Its not the best comedy in the world but i give it maximum note because in this day and age its a brave effort to criticize the indanity of current days and the best comedy is always the one that mirrors reality.

I cannot believe the bad reviews this one has here. It's fun, original, does not take itself serious, it's a roller coaster ride and overall a fantastic b movie with a cool cast which totally delivers and it's exciting and fun from start to finish. I'm buying this on Blu-ray if I find it. Ignore the bad reviews. It's a great little movie for a rainy day.
I just found this on Amazon prime and I had no idea this existed. Noticed Mel Gibson was on it and I thought it couldn't be that bad. It wasn't. It's got humor, the action is frantic sometimes and overall it totally delivers as a popcorn brain dead movie . Just don't take it too seriously and you'll have fun.
