Knowing fantastic

From what i thought of the apocalypse, turns out to be a one way ticket to another world altogether. This was a very enjoyable film from frame one to last. The strangers were a bit under done but what the hell, looks are not everything. I really thought they were the seven arch angels of the apocalypse making one wonder if this was a religious aspect to the movie. But to my misdiagnosis i am glad i was wrong. The twist of having the strangers look for the very few who could be touched to the inner mind so that they themselves can have a second chance was refreshing. On a distant planet where no sickness or diseases can run rampant, and collectively having all the children in one spot to restart the race. And having the old wiped away in a burning cinder was quite original. Leaving behind the old memories and mistrusts of the human race, until the earth became a scorched ember ready to reconstitute itself for another million years, and to have the children come back to repopulate the species. Wonderful way to show how we really do not need this planet by the way its going right now.
