All he'd wanted were the same answers the rest of us want. Where did I come from? Where am I going? How long have I got?

Rating: 10/10 (23 April 2007)

A masterpiece. It is one of the very few films that has left me stumbling out of the cinema, stunned.
At face value, those who have no interest in the issues the film raises may see only a fantastic-looking, atmospheric sci-fi movie. It certainly is those things, but so much more besides.
For me, it questions many of life's great imponderables in a way no other movie ever has. It is uncompromising in its vision of the frailty and deep flaws of mankind, and its uncertain future, and provides no easy answers, but when I saw it, it touched something deep inside that has stayed with me ever since. The quote in the summary above says it all. If you haven't seen it yet, I urge you to without delay. Utterly life-changing.
