I dont know what is this movie really about..what is trying to say?

look like a movie made by formula. A bit of ONE FLEW OVER THE CUKOOS NEST mix with GORILLAS ON THE MIST, then add the bad guy from THE SILENCE OF THE LAMBS add a bit of father/daugher drama from any family movie and finally copy the ending from THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION. Voila, there u have your ridiculous pretencious script!

As hard as I try, I cant find a screenplay worst than this.

"I FELT LIKE DESTROYING SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL"

Prime example folks. Sounds just like what the critics said. The movie was trying to say that we need to stop acting like gods and taking dominion over everything we can. Jesus Christ, man; Hopkin's character DIRECTLY told you what was trying to be said, but you had your head up your ass at the time, and was unable to hear anything other than the brain-dead critics whose asses you had your head up the night prior.

I know how you feel. Mostly I blame Cuba Gooding Junior. Cant figure out why anyone would hire him for any movie. Hes not even anyway near being talented. It must have been painful to Anthony to work with him. He might as well have been working with a popstar wanting to go hollywood.
