There's a lot to like in this film. The story haunted me for days, especially the line about the lead character searching to disprove faith with science but what if that science is challenged by faith. There is a strong theme here about faith vs. science and in Ian the audience can see a man who is ruled by science yet feels a pull towards the unexplained by Sofi and circumstances out of his control. The acting is good here too - I liked Pitt, Berges-Frisby, and Marling. Look for a small role for Steven Yeun from "Walking Dead" fame. What I didn't like here was some uneven writing and directing where the film starts as this opposites-attract love story then abruptly switches to suspense, science fiction thriller. I wish the transition was a bit smoother. Otherwise, this is an engaging and thought-provoking film.
Thought-provoking though a bit uneven - B
