Only those that still have wonder in their heart. . .

TOTALLY agree. It's not the world's best movie or anything, but creative and an entertaining ride, that points a finger at itself, explaining WHY some people disliked it.

Can't reignite. Too busy fighting and warring with others to think about not fighting and doing cooler things.

or the fact that this movie was terrible.

Too true! and well said..

Wonder only goes so far, especially if you'e not a Clooney fan.

I finally saw this movie, and I think it had a very inspiring message for young people, one that could interest them in the sciences and engage them in caring about the planet's future. The ending also showed the connection between people of all ages, backgrounds, and interests, no matter where in the world they're from, and supports the view that everyone has something to contribute. It wasn't a perfect movie, but I thought it was great for those reasons. Beyond that, it showed how "broadcast negativity" does have a collective effect -- take a news break people! -- and, wonderfully, how a disillusioned adult could become re-inspired. I found it quite hopeful in the midst of our very unsettled times. It's disappointing that it didn't do better during its release. I hope kids do find it and take its empowering message to heart.

I think it's getting a bad rap from some people (like in this thread) that take the movie too seriously. This isn't a hardcore sci-fi flick and it seems many of the hardcore sci-fi fans are taking umbrage with many of the less believable aspect of the movie.

To me, that kind of misses the whole point of the movie to begin with, but to each their own. I thoroughly enjoyed this movie and think it is vastly underrated.
