Thursday, July 28, 2005 Science and its manifestations I just got back from 1u TGV cinema. We were playing pool at first, but somehow we decided abruptly to watch the 10.45 p.m. show - The Island.The movie is fine. Maybe the ending was sort of the happy-ever-after kind. Nevertheless, no matter how bad the production of a movie is, I believe every movie depicts a scenario whereby lessons in life come into the picture. Wars, destruction, the shadows of humanity, the manifestation of science such as cloning, and gene modification ... is this what humans strive for with each decade? Survival? A higher standard of living? To live longer and to achieve immortality? Questions exist to be answered, but some always have to be unanswered. Seeing the extent humans can go to survive does give me cold shivers. I am thinking, what if this really happens? the world changes and people start to take other people's lives just to live longer? This is what the movie is all about. Well, it may have been a little confusing at the start, but I reckon it does not put you to sleep. Instead, you stay alert to unfold your doubts during the movie because the secret flows as it gradually creeps to the ending. Not a bad movie to watch if you have watched all other movies. Definitely not the box office quality. It's not like any of Steven Spielberg's well-produced action movies. Just a simple one. With a good reminder to us humans not to take our lives, and other's for granted.
