Anyone who knows anything about quantum physics will tell you this movie is Bullsh*t.

http://www.intuitor.com/moviephysics/" wrote a little something about it, calling it “A New Age propaganda piece which purports to teach about quantum mechanics”

It can be found at the bottom of their webpage or http://www.intuitor.com/moviephysics/bleep.html"

Hopefully others will link to some more other good website that debunk this cr@p!

Ok, ok! There are some rather glaring faults in the movie including the ones Vast referred to on http://www.intuitor.com/moviephysics/bleep.html
Seriously though, are there any redeeming qualities?

You seem a little high strung. In any event, I don't use the internet much so I only drop in here from time to time so I failed to see the "dozens" of post you claim were made on the subject.

Though I think the movie had some highlights I wasn't too impressed with it either.
