Just plain awful

Rating: 1/10 (27 February 2012)

The premise of the film confuses a stochastic universe with a deterministic one, as if the deterministic one demands that there is a purpose to it all. No MIT lecturer would pose such a silly question to his students, even if he was a Christian. One would hope that the deterministic/ indeterministic question is not directly related to the poser he gave which was between a teleology and a natural law argument. After this boob, it is downhill all the way. A collection of silliness, Christian mythology and apocalyptic effects. Spacemen as angels or are they devils? He allows the spacemen to take his son from him, without so much as a 'who the hell are you guys?" But who cares; the end is a new beginning in a new garden of Eden.
Surely we are too grown up for this?
Seeing films like this reminds me that we ain't gonna make it as a species whilst we persist in the myth that its all hopeless but god will come along one day and destroy the world so why bother? Let's burn that oil and attack a new country after all the world 's gonna end this year!
