I probably don’t care that much for family drama, so that just detracted from the fantasy experience for me? I liked several elements of it, but as a whole it was a noisy experience.
It’s funny that a movie is so divisive.

It’s a family drama that just happens to wear sci-fi clothing. And it’s one of the best written family drama scripts in recent memory.
I also appreciated the message that nihilism is almost the easy way out. Optimism requires effort.

Eh, anything that becomes popular becomes divisive. Because it becomes popular to love it and also popular to hate it.
