sPOILER aLERT!

This movie terrified me at times, sometimes stating the facts of our lives is just as scary as warping them. In this case, the scariest thing is that we have Internet-ified our world. Just how much we rely on our tools is made abundantly clear. But it's also beautiful of course, we're geniuses, we're pioneeers, we want more knowledge, all the time!
