The Age of Stupid, a fictionalized documentary by director Franny Armstrong, is a rueful look back at the present day from the perspective of the year 2055, when human civilization is all but destroyed by our inaction on global warming and climate change.

If you like your apocalypse served raw, The Age of Stupid may be the film for you. Despite its flaws, it delivers an important message about the perils of climate change in unambiguous terms. Whether the film will inspire anyone to make meaningful changes remains to be seen — The Age of Stupid is expected to open to wide U.S. release in 2010.

Have you seen it? What’s your opinion of the film?
