For me, it was about people thinking at a higher and more spiritual level due to their experience of either traumatic events or spiritual gifts. This is why their everyday lives no longer satisfied them and why the various plot threads came together at the end. An almost supernatural quickening, as opposed to coincidence, of the like minded. This is a genre of film which has to be watched when you are in the mood.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2587775651487578742.post-19344714495300990322011-07-18T09:56:58.021+12:002011-07-18T09:56:58.021+12:00Andy - Totally agree with everything you said.

The negative general consensus have put me off , but I will watch it soon because Roger Ebert had praised it for weeks before its national release and he's someone who often notices something worthwhile that the majority does not.<br /><br />That was a very funny plot illustration by the way.Ian Montgomeryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02617512627906067345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2587775651487578742.post-58859358143312410472011-07-17T23:01:46.058+12:002011-07-17T23:01:46.058+12:00I agree!

Damon was solid in an against-type role, but the performance of the young boy was quite bad! Instantly forgettable, unfortunately.Andy Bucklehttp://buckle22.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
