9/10
Not for the simple minded

Warning: Spoilers
This film requires a mind that can fill in the blanks, and ride out the emotions of despair, hope, and disappointment, peppered with anxiety and the rush of fear.

We don't get to know what happens to the rest of humanity but that's okay, the film isn't about that. We just know they are tragically gone and he couldn't keep her safe. In a way, it seems she was helping to keep him safe, she was stronger than him.

It's about one man's journey into reconciliation with himself and not giving up, even when he literally loses it all. He has resolved to continue to live as closely to normal as possible.

In his spare time he looks for his lost love, he is convinced she's still out there somewhere. He loses his ability to stick to reality, but reality is to crazy to accept.

It can be a new beginnings movie. Starting over, which is bitter sweet. Even the best things sometimes end and a person must carry on. It's when Adam does this something wonderful happens.

I like the sound track. It's well thought out.

The bowling scene.... its surrealness.

This film will have the Napoleon Dynamite Effect- you're either really like it or hate it.

I really like it.
