A bag of poo

Rating: 1/10 (10 December 2014)

The dustbowl...I didn't understand the usage of old interview footage from survivors of the early dustbowls... made no sense.
Corn is the only viable crop? Okay....
I didn't get the whole anti-science Apollo faked landings schtick. It was irrelevant to the plot. In fact, the plot points out that science is man's only hope here......
Why indeed have our future selves placed a wormhole next to Saturn and not the Moon where it's more convenient? Why can't our future selves, if they are so advanced, simply contact us directly, or 'show up'? Why can't they appear in the past when it wasn't too late to save the planet? What was the deal with the barely habitable planets of ice and water and rocks? Earth is a jewel, yet these places wouldn't support any human populations, and indeed they even pale to the dustbowl earth depicted in the movie.
How is it that we've got advanced enough technologies for AI robots and blackhole venturing spacecraft, but we can't save the earth? Enters a black hole, enters a tesseract of space time, and the best he can do is ping a watch's second hand? (back to my comment about our future selves). Right.
There's only ONE thing that's rewarding in this movie, and it's the rather recycled but still fun to watch aspects of the various launches and spacecraft operation. Yay. Unfortunately, this is a grand total of about 5 minutes of footage.
The sound in this movie is impressive, but at several points, it overwhelms the (lame) dialogue.
