"I wanna tell you something Mark, something you do not yet know, that we K-PAXians have been around long enough to have discovered. The universe will expand, then it will collapse back on itself, then will expand again. It will repeat this process forever. What you don't know is that when the universe expands again, everything will be as it is now. Whatever mistakes you make this time around, you will live through on your next pass. Every mistake you make, you will live through again, & again, forever. So my advice to you is to get it right this time around. Because this time is all you have."

Good deal, Boss!

76% done and I'm too tired to watch it now. :/


You won't regret waiting till you are awake.

One of Kevin Spacey's best roles. Great movie. :-)

That was an awesome movie! The ending had an unexpected twist, which is good because I usually know what's going to happen before movies are over.

The wheelchair scene was kind of depressing. Or I should say, the reason the person was in the wheelchair was depressing.

I won't say more..Don't want to spoil it for people that haven't seen it yet. :)



Glad you liked it CR. :-)

Sorta, kinda...There's a similar movie, an old one, that's very well done. It's called "Flowers for Algernon". If you ever see it scheduled among late night viewing, I'd be sure to catch it. :)
