I think that the author is really grasping, here, and gives the average viewer of this movie way too much credit.

Nice thoughts, though.

LOL! Yeah. If you read down the page at some of the comments, a lot of folks agree that Mr. Zahn is stretching a bit on some of his observations. But, isn’t that what movie reviewers do? It seems that entertainment value isn’t as important, at least to them, as the “message” they perceive. I used to hate it in English when the instructor would ask “What did the author mean by that?”. Was it fun/informative to read? I guess there were a lot of writers with message stories. If you got a message and can’t state it I guess you fictionalize it so you can’t be directly accused of something?
