Sadly Over-hyped

The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.

Brilliant work by the creators of this documentary to bring together the forced assumptions of the cosmos through the ages and present them in valid light.

Lawrence Krauss himself had no idea he was in such a film. Someone basically brought the rights to a bunch of clips of him talking about geocentrism and what a load of rubbish is was and edited the context right out of it. Here is a post written by Lawrence on this very subject. Google "the principle Lawrence Krauss" and look at the 2nd link which is to a slate.com piece he wrote...Just another example of how religion tries to kill all curiosity because it is petrified of the truth: we are not special, our planet exists by pure chance, our sun is puny (and in fact is the source of life so worship that) and there is nobody keeping score and nobody cares about the fates and actions of humans. Everything you have ever been and ever will be is of no importance to the universe so deal with it...

This documentary brings a lot of ideas that will sound very exciting for Christians in general, specially for those supportive of intelligent design. Of course, every documentary is a biased "collage" of interviews, and The Principle isn't different. But the backlash for this movie was surprisingly strong and uncalled for. Of course, the scientists who gave their opinions, as well as the narrator, Kate Mulgrew, will suffer persecution for sustaining such a revolutionary hipothesys. But I cant understand how can you give such passionate statements for a documentary and say later that you had no idea about the subject of filming. The same goes for Mrs Mulgrew, who I admire a lot. A 10 for their bravery!

Geocentrism has been long disproven by everyone with a scientific point of view. This documentary is an attempt to salvage a philosophy hundreds of years after it was unarguably rebuked by observation of the real world. We have sent spacecraft to many places in the solar system, and in every case, Newton's laws of motion have predicted accurate results. Geocentrism is a hoax perpetuated by a desire for human centrality in the workings of a much larger universe. It's basis is not scientific but theological, according to a religious reckoning that even the mainline Catholic Church now rejects. This documentary is a result of people who favor their emotional desires over the hard facts of science that tell us the truth about how all bodies in orbit function. The people who made this documentary used decontextualized footage from unrelated interviews by such personalities as Lawrence Krauss, who couldn't be farther from supporting a geocentrist position. This is a fantasy that relies on disingenuously interpreting quotes from scientists who rebuke the very premise of the film. It's a disgrace to humanity that this film should even exist in this day and age. These are probably the same people who believe the moon landing and the ISS are "hoaxes." Grow up, you ignorant unscientific True Believers. We will move forward with science no matter how hard you try to backpedal against it.
