    No Spoilers Please.
    People are stupid; given proper motivation, almost anyone will believe almost anything. Because people are stupid, they will believe a lie because they want to believe it's true, or because they are afraid it might be true. People’s heads are full of knowledge, facts, and beliefs, and most of it is false, yet they think it all true. People are stupid; they can only rarely tell the difference between a lie and the truth, and yet they are confident they can, and so are all the easier to fool.

    It was pretty good. Sometimes the dialog was a bit lacking, but it was definitely worth seeing.

    I liked it. I saw it in 3D, which is cool enough I guess. I liked that they didn't explain things. They never said "they air is poisonous" or "there's an insufficient oxygen" or whatever. They let you know that masks must be worn and leave the rest to you. They also did a good job of letting you see things that you did not understand, and then show you about it later, which I liked.

    There were some weird things that I wasn't super fond of also, but if nothing else, the movie is beautiful.

    They actually did say that you would be unconscious in 40 seconds (I think), and that you would die in a few minutes if you did not wear the mask.

    Yeah, but the point I'm trying to make is that they don't go into detail as to why you will die, they just tell you that you will.

    The graphics where nice. But the plot was kind of written by a 12 year old.
