3.0

I loved this take on a then future-London (it is set in 1997-1998), and how facism, corruption and surveillance has taken over, although I did struggle a bit to tell all the characters apart and make out what their role was in the story.

I'm considering watching the film, to get a slightly different perspective on the story, and perhaps a better connection with the characters, which I felt the graphic novel lacks.
