Well-done but tiresome, like Russian ice skating

Rating: 6/10 (14 April 2014)

There are a lot of movies worse than this to watch. That being said, if you are a highly-involved, personally vivacious individual who lives and loves in the way you wish, this movie will not speak to you. It is a cautionary tale for hemmed in, workaday drones who struggle to be seen despite their conformity and microscopic vision of themselves. As if it isn't known that breathtaking scenes of volcanoes and near-death experiences are profound. Of course they are. Only in your microscopic world of urban kitsch and self-absorbed resource gathering could the major experiences of human life evade you. This movie is about the (seemingly lost wisdom of) living life and not hiding from it. The people that made the movie could afford to learn the lesson.
