What I take from the movie


The movie clearly annoys many of the people who bothered to watch it all the way through, in many cases twice to figure it out.

I think the reason is that the "objective" is still the objective at the end of the movie. It is the unknown that drives some people ever onward. Things they known for certain are not interesting to them. The other type of person, the type driven by what they "know" finds that the worst possible condition.

I thought the foul language was excessive. There was too little other discussion. I do understand that in the noise and urgency very loud and poignant speech can be necessary, but there was not enough other dialogue to make a movie.

Hmmm. Maybe you should go troll the philosophy board for more discussion on this.




Movies are IQ tests. The IMDB boards are each person's opportunity to broadcast their score.

I get the impression I didn't make yours a better day. I'm sorry.

I think people who saw the movie either liked it or didn't, but they did have some reaction. I think that is the mark of a good movie to create a reaction.

I'm still not sure what "trolling" is or whether it means the same thing to all the people who use it. Is it just aiming for any reaction good or bad? I suppose that must mean differently than good movies.

My favorite board by far is Religion, Faith and Spirituality.

I have tried the philosophy board as well.

I think the movie is better than the discussion about it would indicate. I wish I had seen it in 2008.
