Why are people so offended?


A lot of people pretty upset with this film...calling it "pretentious" and other nasty things...Why are these people so excited? Are they not getting laid? Are they upset because they just couldn't understand the concept of non lineal time? We're they expecting something more like "independence day,regurgitation".
Hard to say what goes through a trolls mind....I wouldn't pay any attention though, this is a great film....pay attention though...if you don't you might end up on these boards complaining with the rest of them.

I liked the film. I wouldn't mind if we got a sequel to clear up more questions.

That said, I still enjoy "pew pew" sci-fi flicks. I don't mind this wasn't one of them. Heck, we got plenty of those to choose from to scratch that itch
