Very Interesting Movie

Rating: 9/10 (21 October 2008)

I think this was a very "intelligent" move. It takes a smart person to enjoy this kind of movie. It doesn't come right out and tell you what is going on, you need to figure it out yourself. There was lots of foreshadowing, and hinting around in the movie. It had a very deep concept, "the earth's rinse cycle". When the planet feels threatened, it restores balance. The planet will not sit back and watch us pollute its air and chop down its forests, it will fight back. The characters might have been a little stupid, but the concept of the whole thing was very entertaining. The epidemic started in the northeast, where the industrial revolution started, and started impacting the environment. The ecology had suffered the longest there. Next was Europe. Soon after will be the middle United States. The epidemic would blossom outward, following the path of humanity's conquest of the planet. The safest people on the planet would be the ones in third would nations that have yet to be industrialized, and are still at balance with nature.
