Review of The Theory of Everything (2006) by Chia-Hui H — 23 Jun 2009
Dr Eugene Holland (Victor Lundin) left his wife for a pious Christian woman Lori who then died of cancer. Desiring to be reunited to her in eternity, he attempts to prove the existence of heaven through the string theory, also known as the theory of everything. I find the movie lacks intellectual depth and also compromises on Christian ethics. It touches this unproven theory without giving much interpretation and insight. This Christian movie also fails to present the Christian view on marriage. Lori lived to challenge the Biblical commandments by marrying an already married man who was also a skeptic of the Christian faith. In consequence, people suffered from this selfish couple's affair, and Dr Holland's daughter by his first marriage now comes back for revenge on her father.
The movie is a great disappointment.
