THINK,GODDAMN

Rating: 8/10 (2 March 2002)

People who say that this is a bad movie, do not understand much of it! This is a movie where you have to think with, explore deeper meanings of life and the human mind. It's not like a Saving private Ryan where the director 'thinks' for you. The film only works for people who have really thought about life, the meaning of life etc. It's about questioning the way we live our lives. Are we doing the right thing here on earth or not? One of the best things that the movie brings forward is the goodness/evilness of mankind. Think about it: Is there any other species living on this planet that has so many ways of killing and torturing each other and that kills itself at such a great scale? We're just a sick species and (almost) everybody eventually acts in self-interest. We don't care about each other, we just use each other for our own purposes and we let others to die and to starve. And the thing that makes me even more angry is people's hypocryt response and sympathy (like: "Oh, but we care about them, we give money!) for those who have less. I can't even think of a reason why the humankind deserves to survive, but this is not something I have to worry for, because eventually (like Sean Penn said in the movie) we will wipe ourselves out! The more we evolve, the more we are getting to our own self destruction. Think about this, not for ten minutes or 1 day, but with every thing you see/hear/feel and you will understand this movie. But this is not a movie for people who want other people to think for them!
