Perry Kate Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Steinesongo Too many fans seem to be blown away
Livestonth I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible
Sienna-Rose Mclaughlin The movie really just wants to entertain people.
icaci I remember short scenes from this movie being aired on TV1000 (or was it CANAL+?) when I was younger. I had just bought a book on ray-tracing and was wondering how did they do that outstanding animation when it took an hour of my puny PC to render just a simple scene. I never knew the name of the movie - they just aired uncredited parts of it on the TV to fill the gaps in the schedule. Some days ago I found it by chance and I'm very happy - it brought me back to my happier childhood :)Overall - great music and great animation. Very advanced CGI scenes for the time of its making. And the music blends flawlessly with the video. It's definitely not some random 3DS Max video & electronic sound compilation like the ones creeping around nowadays.
barney_holmes I saw this on a Channel 4 special in, I think it was the mid 1990's. It was shown with a few documentaries with early technology/internet enthusiasts, and Arthur C Clarke doing an investigation of Fractals. In the post Cold War chaos and building Millennial angst it was a God send. The animations brilliantly hinted at the things to come. With our current rapidly developing plans for a return to the Moon, I wonder if anyone can remember the dark days (for me anyway) of the 1990's ? We go from pure adrenalin rushes of video game inspired story telling. A robot escaping from the system to find the extraordinary Universe outside ? What does that sound like ? We go from that to deeper pieces about human creativity, and the creativity of life itself, to stunning pieces of illusionary animation, using techniques I've never seen before or since.Highly unusual, in my opinion, almost spooky in it's affirmation of the pure force of life itself, ironically, expressed through the cold machine. Touching, positive and upbeat.DJ Barney
chilidog22 It rocks man! Perfect stuff to put on the tv screen with the sound off and play comething on the stereo! The images seem to go with any music! The city scapes look like Blade Runner. It's better than that stuff in Lawnmower Man! Lots of emryo-like images...
markk For those that remember Thomas Dolby only for "She Blinded Me with Science", you have a real suprise and treat in store. Dolby has moved on and shown how good he really is, doing the score for this movie. Part of the reason I go on about this is I discovered the soundtrack before purchasing the video (and later DVD).The computer animation for 1994 is very well done. It could probably be done in real time today, but it's certainly very impressive even today at the detail that was done. The journey starts with the end of the world, moving along though the birth of a new world, following evolution and history, with Dolby's brilliant music helping set the tone and the pace.The blend of music and art makes it a must buy. No extra features, it's not even 5.1, probably one of the first DVDs made. But it's still worth it.
