What the Bleep!?: Down the Rabbit Hole

The "message" of the BLEEP films is that coherent individuals humans have the potential to clear cellular level false and harmful to well-being 'memory' information and ways of thinking, and thereby improve the quality of one's life, allowing for a more enlightened level of Conscious Awareness. In the films is presented different individuals' perspectives on information about the history of, to leading edge modern scientific explorations into why people think what we think is "true" and correspondingly behave the way(s) that we do, as well as a method of using 'free will' to change and improve ourselves. In short, the main point is that we have a certain amount of choices and options for what and how we use/spend our human energy 'time'. No one needs to join anything, follow anyone or "believe" anyone or anything. That message is as old as humankind, from cave drawings, to numerous higher-level consciousness individual prophets, philosophers, alchemical scientist, messiahs, psychics, and others. It is clear to me that the endeavor of the filmmakers, and on screen participants, is to contribute to the new genre of Spiritual Cinema films for the purpose of a desirable "New Evolution" for humankind and life on this planet. Otherwise a future of doom and gloom is assured. This is all about taking and using whatever we choose, from wherever, to help ourselves in much needed ways.

This sequel to the first film about quantum physics is full of fascinating tidbits but lacks the cohesive feeling of the original "What the Bleep" film.

Watching "Down the Rabbit Hole" feels a bit like reading the footnotes to the first film. Some parts of the film are directly lifted from the first film and give the sense of reading a kind of textbook summary/reminder of previously covered theories to contextualize some of the new ideas discussed. In other cases, identical footage is used to illustrate slightly different ideas.

There is also much new footage and discussion, much of it apparently footage that was cut from the first film. There is definitely more emphasis on the religio-spiritual aspects/impacts of quantum theory, especially around the idea that we are all interconnected in a vast web of energy. This is simply one aspect of the world of quantum physics whether it proves/disproves one's personal religious/spiritual vision or not. (In other words, disagreeing personally with some of the ideas in "Down the Rabbit Hole" doesn't make it a bad film although it's lack of cohesion might.) An interesting continuation but definitely not as compelling as the first film.

This movie is a great combination of various things, a group of people's hard work of putting it together in an attempt to explain our world (as we know it and beyond), its existence & spirituality, in a scientific way. Many viewers may find it difficult to understand unless they are ready for it.

I have also seen an extended version and its extensively powerful...very nice way to simplify the concept as much as possible.

Great one!!!

Everyone involved has done a great job and I would say its a breakthrough film in combining various known and unknown ideas and facts in a convincing way...appreciate your work guys!

With the polarization of the human race between Religion and Science, this movie (so I thought) did a good job in expressing a view that, if nothing else, opens some minds on both sides. To my horror, by reading some of these posts, it seems that the science community is becoming more and more close minded by totally disproving topics that don't align with their beliefs. I do not know how this movie was advertised, but I wasn't anticipating a science class. I will admit there were at least one self-serving unnecessary opinion in this movie that kind of turned me off, but overall I thought it did a good job of making the average person think in a way they never have and that is always a good thing.

This movie is a blend of new age thinking and what we know about quantum physics. This is basically an expanded version of the previous "What the Bleep?" movie but it provides a lot more depth.

The most compelling aspect of this movie is not the specific examples they use, but the overall message that we create our own reality, we shape our own reality and we change reality.

This movie uses both sound and questionable science to convey it's message. It is up to the user to come to their own conclusion about the implications.

This movie is worthwhile for the simple fact it makes you think. It could be classified as it's own genre in that it blends the format of documentary and drama yet it is not a true example of either. You would not watch this for the drama, and the science is based on theory and speculation more so than hard fact.

The added portions in this 2006 release make it better than the original. The editing is not as smooth, but the extra information allows you walk around with more things to ponder afterward.
