Mr. Earth

It is not necessary to have everything spelled out for you with this movie. The ideas are presented in the least definitive way because the point is for the viewer to think about the feelings being examined and not the details of when, where, and what. The dialogue was not important between most of the characters, The viewer was prompted to simply feel the feelings involved with each character's situation in this plot. The passage of time was left very vague on purpose. The feelings were the main consideration here. The real meaning of the movie doesn't get presented until the end, so anyone who doesn't get there, doesn't know what this is about. As more AI becomes present in our future we will be called on to decide how important human feelings really are. Without human feeling what is the meaning of anything? Beautiful scenes, engaging music, and fantasy adventure.....enjoy the feelings.

I only made it about half an hr in. The acting is pretty bad. Ben and Olivia both sound congested every time they talk. Dropping and picking your kid at a school with an empty parking lot and nobody else around? Camping with 2 adults and 3 kids and all you have is a small tent and a few chairs? I get low budget but come on. Zero effort was put into making this movie real. When he finally gets abducted it's ridiculously bad writing. The dialouge is confusing at best. I just couldn't go on anymore. I wanted to like this and watch it but there's just to much wrong already at this point. I doubt it gets better.

I really really wanted to like this film. I managed to stick with it and watch the whole thing but it wasn't half hard work. The story is a nice idea and it's done in a completely different way to any other film I've seen.

But the acting from the main character Ben, good lord it was torturous at times. He should be very likeable but he just doesn't seem to have any authenticity. He wanders round the whole film as if he's in a dream and even in the important moments doesn't seem to convey any great emotion.

I've no idea what the last half an hour is for, it was so unnecessary and could've been dispensed with with a much better explanation at the 90 minute mark.

Got to say I did like Ella though, thought she was portrayed very well.

I thought the story and script was good, but just a little slow moving and brooding. Also, for a Scifi movie, it was skimpy on special effects. I would have liked to see a little more action and more scenes of the alien planet and their civilization. I understand that they were probably on a shoestring budget.

The acting was decent, and actors and actresses did a good job with their parts.

Unless you're expecting a big budget production, I would recommend this movie. It is a believable portrayal of what could happen if an advanced civilization were to interact with members of humanity. By far the best part of the movie was the dialogue.

Without spoilers, this is a simply down to Earth movie about a real life, real problems, and real people in a bit unreal circumstances. You could call this an Ode to Earth and life on it. It is easy to watch, heartwarming, thought provoking, and does not contain the usual Holywood nonsense. I hope you will, like myself, fall in love with the story, characters, the plain show of life, and beautiful music. I can imagine this movie will become as strong underdog as it gets. I wish more movies like this gets made as this is a very rare breed. I really hope the people which do not get this movie will one day be able to see its magic.
