Really bad rip-off of Space Odyssey 2001


This movie is what happens when someone sees 'Space Odyssey 2001' without understanding what happens at the end, but gets an obsessive-compulsive urge to imitate and copy it.

The 'old-man mask' was ridiculously bad, and hollyweird-typical. Not believable at all. Look at his impeccable teeth!

The way he formed perfect, coherent sentences constantly and without effort, and spoke with some weird, high-pitched voice, wasn't realistic at all.

People that say 'haters didn't understand' (the USUAL argument for any crap movie), don't realize that the makers of this movie didn't understand ANY movie they mimicked - and those include Forrest Gump - did we NEED that weird scene, where he's blowing the leaf into the wind and the camera follows the leaf..? DID WE?!

This would've been more interesting movie, if it hadn't had SO MUCH 'injected romance' in it. So damn much... aagh!

In any case, the beginning is interesting, but confusing, and the rest of the movie is boring soap based on that confusion, then the confusion is supposedly explained at the end..

.. and the ending means, "It was just a dream". The WORST type ending ever.

Avoid this crap at all costs, it's worse than Donnie Darko.

Yeah, you understood exactly zero from this movie.

The "confusion" - for you - it's explained in the first minutes of the movie.

And the movie has zero things to do with 2001 ...
