Inspired by the Quotes, not so much by the movie.

Rating: 8/10 (21 February 2016)

Peaceful Warrior is a small production or at least it feels like it. The story of a young gymnast who has it all but is empty inside. He comes across a man called Socrates who becomes his spiritual healer and opens his eyes about the true meaning of life.
The movie is plagued with metaphorical scenes, so much that it's hard to know if this Socrates is for real or just a product of the gymnast' s imagination. Although, I am not a fan of metaphors in movies, ads, etcÂ… I accepted them as part of the visual explanation of life that is often simple but difficult to explain.
What I loved the most are the quotes and some of the teachings you get from the movie. "What are you? this moment." will remain in my notebook for a long long time.
