This is very innovative science fiction. It is just so intriguing not only in its central theme but as a very interesting story filled with many fascinating character complexities and interactions. Once you start watching this movie you cannot turn away from it. Once you see it scenes keep coming back to you for several days. It is that engrossing. I wanted to watch it again the next day. It is so different and appealing. I wish this DVD was in widescreen but honestly the film is so good that you just look beyond that. There is a certain intimacy about this film that I can't seem to describe but it just captures you.
