Of Cory McAbee's films, I think this is his greatest. Intelligent, witty, and often hilarious, it uses a clever framing device to explore a plethora of wildly inventive and thought-provoking concepts. This movie will affect the way you think.
Intellectual yet humanistic, thought-provoking yet accessible, this is a perfect film for those who like to use their heart and brain in conjunction. It's a film that touches on vast existential questions, while never losing sight of everyday human realities. A film that leaves you feeling intellectually and emotionally enriched in equal measure. When you arrive home after seeing it, you will want to simultaneously research scientific and philosophical concepts, and go out and meet new people. I cannot wait for an opportunity to see it again, and to share it with others.
