A brilliant film. It makes you think. It makes you guess. And the end makes you hope the good guy gets away. Seen it over and over. It never gets old.
Ok, let's experiment something here. Try this for fun. Watch this video and let's pretend Robert Duvall's character represents present-day human consciousness. Are you capable of doing that ? Ok...so...what is happening to human consciousness is at the end of this scene. Do you get it ?
What an awesome ending, with an awesome message... that some things, like freedom and personal sovereignty are more important than just continuing to suck air and metabolize food. That maybe just staying alive isn't the be-all and end-all. A fitting great early attempt for a GREAT director.
I went into this movie hoping for a George Lucas masterpiece with great writing and an original, entertaining story arc. I got neither of those. I was SO BORED throughout this entire film.

I love the fact that Zooey Deschanel's dad was responsible for that ending shot.

@nikedmondson i felt the same way, the film just kept jump cutting to random things that happened and i had no clue what the hell was happening

I just saw this movie for the first time last night. It was a bit strange at times, but is definitely worth watching.
