Review of Another Earth (2011) by Pjsp27 — 15 Dec 2011
I loved this film and whilst it has it's flaws, I believe those flaws add to the film, in the sense that we can make our own minds up, rather than having every possible meaning of the film rammed down our throats,Michael Bay style.
I know the other Earth is there in the film and the characters talk about it, so it's not supposed to be just in her mind, but maybe it is. Maybe it is all just a metaphor for another chance and the references to the other earth are in her psyche to help her deal with the grief.
The odds of her getting a trip to another earth as a convicted felon are maybe a bit far fetched. That's just one way that I like to think of this film which allows many translations for me. This would also explain away the flawed scientific possibilities, or we can take it at face value and ignore the scientific angle, just as we should do, after all it's not a documentary.
