Great beginning and the best LSD Trip on Screen so far, but potential wasted from the middle on.
In the beginning the movie is quite spiritual and has some wisdom. The wisdom is deeper, than in usual movies of that genre, but still far away from deep. For example :"..we can not lose our demons but only live above them..." This statement is deeper than the usual black and white philosophy of movies like star-wars etc., but still not really paradox as our quantum universe seems to be. Living above our demons, means no transformation, but only constant control. In order to master our demons, we have to actually stop fighting them and make peace with all our darkness. (see Erich Fromm /C.J.Jung) This realization is maybe the greatest Challenge to movies, books etc., because what can we write about, if the good is also bad and bad is also good?
The movie first states that humans have a spiritual power, but quickly subjectifies it into smth which is material and not paradox at all. Spirituality becomes just another world to master and conquer. Surrender becomes a control of the ego, rather than an openness to something greater, than the material world. It acutely becomes all about magics, a movie for children. No mysticism like in matrix, (Neo realized the brightest light in the darkness of the machines, when he lost his eyes). More and more the special effects in the movie take away the viewers ability to imagine and go deeper into the subject and so the mystery and mystic feeling changes to a decent visual experience. In the beginning it was absolutely great, because the effects was driven by mysticism and a spiritual wisdom, which watered down towards the end.
