Downsizing was one of the greats of 2017, it's sublime environmental storytelling combined with Matt Damon's phenomenal performance as Paul creates an international tale for the ages. This film brilliantly compares the socialist roots of the Norwegians with the ultra-capitalist consumerist mindset of post Ronald Regan neo-liberal America. Scholars will discuss the ideas of this film for generations. Nabokov wishes that they were as nearly as insightful and dare I say comedic as Alexander Payne's script. Downsizing is a must watch for the family, movie nerds and anyone wishing to broaden their horizons.
