I Origins

This movie has been on my watch list for a while. I finally made the decision to watch it because of its enticing synopsis. However, now that I've actually seen it I feel tricked. The synopsis is more of a ruse; the actual movie has very little to do with what's described in it. You'll see. With that being said I do have a gripe with the "science" in the movie. As someone with a background in science I know that most of the things that are being presented as "facts" in this movie are nothing but humbug. You can't create iris scans from "high res" images. And that's not the only pseudo-science that's prevalent in "I Origins". But I don't want to spoil anything so I'll just end it here.

The movie was OK but I can't help but feel a little disappointed. I was expecting something very different; a movie about the origin of self / consciousness. But instead we've watched a movie about eyes. Very funny play of words (/sarcasm). Just because "I" is a homonym for eye that doesn't justify this type of trickery. I feel betrayed.
