Featured reviews
The ending was fantastic. Exactly what i hoped for. Casting is great. Writing excellent. Direction on point. Give it 30min if you still hate it, it might not be for you. If you enjoy it at that point keep on. It's a great ride.
The movie does a great job in presenting several of the Mandela Effect issues and their basis in real science. Quantum physics, the multiverse theory (the real one not that Marvel crap), the holographic universe, all these point to much bigger things than we can currently understand.
I get why people can't connect to this movie, they can't wrap their head around the idea that what they consider reality may not actually be. That leads into meaning of life questions, concepts of God, and all sorts of existential reality crises. The average person can't handle that, so they freak out and refuse to think about it. Those of us who do question reality find the subjects very stimulating.
I think they did a good job wrapping up the movie. There were really only a couple plausible options for an ending and they choose the happy version. I can dig it.

- Quotes
[first lines]
Brendan: [narrating] How many? How many trials will it take for this rat to run this maze without making any mistakes? How quickly will the rat complete the maze each time? Over multiple trials, will he get faster? Over time, rats tend to run the maze with fewer and fewer errors. Soon, they eliminate the errors altogether, and move faster. As it moves, it's creating an internal map of its world.
Brendan: Researchers use maze studies to help identify general principles about learning and memory, and what they learn can be applied to other species. Even us.
Brendan: I design games. I code. In video games, we come across these principles each time we play. They are designed so we use our memory to learn, adapt and advance. Without our memory, we'd get nowhere.
