- firloop 6y agoI found myself not liking the film very much, despite finding parts of it educational and illuminating. Particularly, I found it really bizarre that it discusses the stoned ape theory without mentioning any of the criticism or prevailing theories against it. The movie just passes it (and most other things Stamets believes) along as unchallenged gospel. It took me out of it and made the film feel (even more) ideologically one-sided, despite the fact that the film is full of interesting detail otherwise.
- saiya-jin 6y agoYeah it turned weirder and more opinionated towards the end. If you are a die hard tripper/stoner then that must have been delighting, otherwise not so much. Visual side for the first part is stunning though.
- n4r9 6y agoMy wife is a plant pathologist and mycologist and had a similar opinion: "some interesting bits, is too preachy". The SAH has always seemed empty to me. If you don't propose an actual mechanism, do you even have a hypothesis?
