Has anybody seen this? Thinking about going to it tomorrow.
Seems really interesting, or maybe incredibly dense and confusing.

Ok, saw the movie last night.
First thing: it was made on $7000. That's awesome. That excuses the next paragraph a bit.
The camerawork is sometimes pretty grainy, and there are times when the dialogue is a bit obscured because the microphoning wasn't so good and background noises drown it out.
The movie itself: good. Very confusing. Lots of times I didn't really know what was going on, and at least part of that was due to the filmmakers' intent. Maybe not all.
Neat ideas. Michelle is a PhD physicist and understood some of the science stuff they were talking about where I had no clue. Evidently they consulted actual scientists when working on the script and such.
Anyway, I decided on my own and gave it a 'B'. I asked Michelle at dinner after and she gave it a 'B' too before I told her my rating. Worth seeing, but make sure you're alert. Not a movie to see when tired or drunk.
But we did enjoy it, just a few caveats about the "following the story" part :)
Also, there is an excellent tapas place next to the Charles Theater in Baltimore. Tasty.
