I really can't add much to what many people have had to say about this film. Quantum theory is perhaps the most abused scientific theory of the past twenty or so years, much like natural selection was abused in the early twentieth century. At least the effects of abusing quantum theory are much more benign than of abusing natural selection. That said, this film takes some reasonable concepts such as accepting yourself for who you are and not getting overly stressed about things you can't change and says quantum theory shows us why we need to act like that. None of that follows from quantum theory, which has to do with the unpredictability of subatomic particles. Above the atomic level, objects behave in highly predictable ways.
The dramatization with the photographer was interesting, and I wouldn't have minded a film of just that story, but the comments from "experts", in particular J.Z. Knight, who probably almost broke the bank in agreeing to appear in the film, detracted considerably from the story, and they really could have shut up at least fifteen minutes before the end, since they just kept saying the same things. I really can't underrate this film, but at least it wasn't a total waste of an hour and forty-five minutes.
