There were many, many things I really liked about this movie, as much as I balked at just how plausible it would all be. But then I think, well, I've basically asked people to immerse themselves in worlds where old people undergo genetic therapies to live forever, or where machines rule the human construct, so.
The moment with the X marking the spot? One of the best moments in the whole thing, on so many levels. It was just a deliciously perfect moment, for what that movie was, and all that moment represented.
Also, Yuri Lowenthal and Sean Pean have practically the same eyes.
It really is an ARG of a movie, in spite of the number of times I was yelling at Michael Douglas' character for being an idiot.
