Well, I hope you're wrong!!!  I agree with everything you said.  But here in
San Diego and in Los Angeles, _Brazil_ has been playing for over a month.  When
I saw it, there was only about 25-30 people in attendance, and most of them 
didn't seem to enjoy it.  
But as in the case with real art, the masses can not appreciate talent!  8{)

My recommendation:  If y'all liked films/movies like Videodrome, Liquid Sky,
and Teenage Coed in Heat, 8{) you'll enjoy Brazil.

Go see it, while you can!!!
