Review of The Man from Earth (2007) by Jason S — 29 Aug 2009

An interesting movie that I think would work better in novel form than on the screen. It's a lot of talking and while the cast does a good job it tends to get a little slow at points. I started to lose interest in the story when it moved into a much bigger plot of how the character deals with religion and his role in Christianity. I feel it was a better story when he was just a man who wasn't dealing in world changing matters.

The end was good but due to the low budget of the flick it seemed rushed and small. It was shot too dark and in a small space that started to get to me as the movie went on.

A good watch but I wouldn't rush out to tell people that they had to watch it.
