I quite liked it when it came out, general vibe of scientists pulled out by government for top secret project always gives me chills. And it's quite beautiful artistically.
Story didn't have much sense, but I was mostly okay with it.
Oh boy, that changed when I read original story this film is based on. Original story is actually very interesting science fiction, exploring one intriguing physics principle, which got me thinking for days. I wouldn't consider this film a waster of my time just because I heard about this story because of it. But film itself absolutely and miserably fails to show beauty of original premise. It absurdly mutilate original plot, and without basic idea explained or even mentioned it looks just stupid and doesn't have any sense.
It looks like movie makers couldn't understand science principle behind original, but they were told to copy all the aftermath, so that's what they did without any thinking and logic. Result is just embarrassing.
