Movie #165 watched on 6/5/2019.
Director: Mike Cahill | Writer(s): Mike Cahill
As I was watching this movie I started to wonder where the idea came from. I don’t think I would ever want to know the truth as I love the idea that I have of its inception.
I feel like the writers of this movie were watching their umpteenth Hollywood big-budget spectacle blockbuster movie and began to wonder about the regular people trying to live their every day lives as Nasa was preparing to go into space to destroy the asteroid or as the special forces unit was standing side by side with robots from another planet defending the earth from invading forces.
Some of the best sci-fi provides a backdrop or avenue to tell a completely human story and that is what you find with “Another Earth”. Great premise and great execution.
