Knowing
You take that back about The Man From Earth. It left nothing wanting in execution.
Knowing is soooo frustrating. Great premise, Nic Cage Nic Caging tha fuck out of everything. Then it seems like the writer hit a block and turned to a random word generator that spit out "space angels" and called it a day.
Still 2/3 of an interesting movie.
The Man From Earth is definitely one I think about. The things he must have seen, must have done, that over time shaped him into who he was. Is he the embodiment of mankind, as well as its own self-hatred? The religious stuff was a bit much. I still haven't seen the sequel, with genuine anxiety to.
Daybreakers is also a good one. A bit deus-ex with the "solution" at the end, but very good thought experiment
