Reviews
The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.
The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.
While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
