All the universe or nothingness...




Which shall it be?

When I look back at a life (at this point) half-lived, this is truly one of my main questions as well...if taking the perspective of a human being among a group of human beings rather than the self-serving individual animal I usually am.


The question is nearly hard-wired in the dna and does not originate in this film or in the book, but there are few films that have directly asked these sorts of questions and, despite the mostly bad acting from some very good actors, I rate this an 9. It is aided by the fact the imagination of Wells can be much like prophecy at times.
