1、Make absolutely certain you do not miss this film
10星 短评:一定要确保你没有错过这部电影

This film is tantalizing, not to your eyes, not to your ears, but rather where it counts the most...your brain. What a breath of fresh air, I felt satisfied in the end and invigorated. If I had paid 50 dollars to see this film I would not have been disappointed.
这个片子是很挑逗人的,不是挑逗你的眼睛也不是你的耳朵,最重要的是挑逗了你的大脑。真是让人耳目一新,我对结局还挺满意的,也让我很是鼓舞。如果我花了50美元去看这部电影,我也是不会失望的。
For anyone who has an intellect, is open minded and ready for an adventure born of thought, Ideas and possibilities, make absolutely certain you do not miss this film.
那些心智很高、思想开放而且准备好来一场头脑、思想和可能性的冒险的人,请务必不要错过该片。
2、A minimalist sci-fi drama.
8星 短评:一部极简主义科幻片
(剧透警告)
I saw this movie when it premiered at the Rhode Island International film festival. It was the main attraction of a sci-fi block that I went to without any knowledge of what the file was about, save the IMDb plot summary. What I saw was much different than what I expected, and I must say that I was pleasantly surprised.
这部电影在罗德岛国际电影节首映的时候,我就看了。当时它是科幻片板块的主要看点,所以我在对其内容一无所知(除了IMDb上的剧情简介外)的情况下就去看了。而我所看到的和我的预想很不一样,而我不得不说,它让我很惊喜。


3、brilliant story
9星 短评:出色的故事
...every so often you will see a film or hear a story that will take your breath away and leave you wondering...this is one of those stories.
…每隔一段时间,你都会看到一部电影或是听到一个故事,它能让你神魂颠倒并让你思绪万千…本片就是这样的故事。
That said it is probably not for everyone. If you don't want your believes challenged you should probably stay away from this one. The film is all about the characters and their dialog, it is what makes or breaks the film, and I must say they did an excellent job, it kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time, wanting to hear more. All this topped with great acting makes this a film really worth seeing.
话虽如此,本片可能并不是每一个人都适合去看。如果你不希望自己的信仰受到挑战,那也许你应该远离这部本片。这部电影的重头就落在那些人物及其对话上,正是它们成就/毁掉了这部电影,而且我必须说,他们的工作做得非常出色,能让我全程坐立难安,想听他们说出更多。所有这些,还有伟大的演绎加持,使得这部电影真心值得一看。
It goes to show that you can make great films these days without explosions and killings...so simple yet so effective. Great movie!
这就足见出:如今,不靠爆炸和杀戮也能拍出伟大的电影......如此简单,效果却如此之好。伟大的电影!
4、Simply mind-blowing...
10星 短评:简直太烧脑了

This movie manages to present somewhat insane ideas from a relevant point of view thus making those ideas relevant to the spectators.I love the way the main actor knows that his story goes far beyond the normal psychological,historical and even scientific guidelines,but because he doesn't feel that way he forces everybody to judge their on beliefs whether they're scientific or religious ones.
这部电影成功地从一个很切题的角度出发,为我们展现了有几分疯狂的想法,因此这些想法也就能让观众感同身受。我非常喜欢男主角的点是,他很清楚他的故事远远超出了正常的心理学、历史学甚至是科学的准则,但因为他自己没有这种感觉,于是他就迫使每个人去评判他们自己的信仰,无论他们是信科学还是信教。

5、Triumph
10星 短评:大成功

6、Superb! A movie for endless discussions and deep thinking
10星 短评:一部超凡绝伦的电影!能带给人无尽的讨论和幽深的思考
(剧透警告)

7、Thought provoking
10星 短评:振聋发聩
This movie doesn't have any action, CGI special effects, all it has are just a bunch of college professors sitting around a fireplace, discussing some really mind boggling ideas.
这部电影中没有任何动作场面和电脑特效,有的只是一群大学教授围坐在火炉边,讨论着一些相当烧脑的想法。

What if you are as old as humanity itself, what if you have stood witness the evolution of mankind from its birth to the present day, what would you have done, which chapters in mankind's history would you have written.
要是你和人类这个物种一样古老会如何,要是你一路亲历了人类从诞生到现在的演化,你又会怎么做,人类历史中的哪些篇章会由你来书写。
The concept of immortality is as old as mankind itself, but never before have I seen this concept explored with such, thoughtfulness and philosophy.
长生不老这个概念和人类本身一样古老,但我从来没有见过有人能如此周全、如此有哲理地对这个概念展开探讨。
One minor thing I did not like about the movie is the prolonged overly dramatic outright hostility towards John's confession. I don't think the incredulity is really necessary here, especially amongst a bunch of intellectuals.
这部电影里有一个小地方我不喜欢,即那些人物在很长一段时间内,赤裸裸且太过于戏剧化地敌视约翰的坦白。我觉得片中出现的这种怀疑真的没有必要,尤其是在一群知识分子中间。
