Customer Reviews
Requires thought
A beautifully written, filmed, directed, and acted experiment in existential "what ifs". A Benjamin Button for the very smart. Take note that it runs 2 1/2 hours so if you're not in the mood for this kind of film it might drag. It could stand a bit more editing and would have lost nothing at 2 hours or even a bit less. Jared Leto is a revelation. All in all, a pretty magnificent film for its type.
Imaginative and visually entertaining
It's a long movie but if you enjoy stories, visually engaging cinematography then this might be for you. Pay attention, this movie demands your attention and I found it worth every minute! Beautiful and thought provoking long afterwards.
One Healthy Movie
It's long. It's high concept. And you must pay close attention. If you do the reward is an amazing story about the choices we make and why one must follow their heart. This is one of my favorite films. ;)
