CGiii Comment

Crammed with imagination - but, alas the execution is poor - budget constraints.

It does get a little tedious at times and the Irish actor deserves a slap for incompetency.

There is a definitve courting of controversy but this cannot be construed as global - it is centred within Canadian politics which will alienate many people - a weakness amplified by the amateur production values and acting.

It may have been preferable as a straight (almost academic) documentary without the amateur dramatics.

Definitely worth a look - Greyson has excelled in research and imagination...BUT, since he is a lecturer in film production, you can only shake your head at this meagre (and annoying) visualisation - which really does become too stupid by the end.
