Second time I watched it, first time was during its theatrical release.

Still a very powerful movie. The slow rhythm and the cinematography create a very heavy atmosphere, fit for the universe and message the movie conveys.

Some of the shots give a Dune vibe, nice to see this so many years before the first Dune movie.

Definitely recommended if you like SF and dystopian universes

The storyline with Jared Leto (also the weakest aspect) goes nowhere. I think it falls apart in the end. Visually great but pointless. It felt like a waste of time.

Indeed. I had even forgotten his character existed.

Idk how the guy keeps getting cast in stuff. I don't hate him but he's just not that compelling as an actor. And has he been in anything successful?

He was Paul Allen in American Psycho, though I don't know how successful that was at release.
