This is SO sad! I love Sci-Fi, I LOVE Special Effects, I love a good Movie, and I LOVE innovative film making. But as soon as a movie gets “preachy” (in ANY direction) it is ruined for me. This one sounds particularly manipulative, not to mention idolatrous. I loathe an agenda-driven script!

This is one I will be sure to miss. (sigh)

True. But interestingly enough preachy characters, manipulative characters, and/or agenda-driven characters can help make a good story.
