Agreed.
The movie wears its message about class structure on its sleeve, which makes it a stretch to even call it an allegory. In and of itself, there's nothing wrong with such an approach - but then it gets all obscure in the ending, which is jarring and simply doesn't work.
It's a decent enough pastime, but no instant classic. Rated 3 stars in the poll.
