Synopsis: Nemo Nobody is the last mortal man. At 118, he remembers his past live, or rather his lives as they could have been. | |
Review: Don't get confused by the first ten minutes of the movie, it will get clearer and more linear after a while, although until the end the editing shifts constantly between the different possible lives of Nemo. The whole concept of the movie is interesting but I found it too long. Probably the cinema version (with twenty minutes less) is largely enough. For a long while you don't know what the main theme of the movie actually is: family, parallel universes, immortality, love, or is it just a Science-Fiction movie? Well as Neo said: "The problem is choice". Indeed the name of the main character (Nemo) and his search for answers reminded me more of the hero of The Matrix than of the orange fish or of the submarine captain. Nemo is even said that only the Architect knows the answers. So, a not too bad SF movie with some philosophical questions, but too long. |
