Another Earth
Following her release from prison, a morose young woman (Brit Marling) seeks out the man (William Mapother) whose life she shattered in a car accident several years earlier. Estranged from the world and the selves they once knew, the two outsiders begin an unlikely love affair and reawaken to life.

The wildly improbable set-up is merely the jumping off point for an exploration of grief, guilt and redemption

The result is an alluring image -- Earth above Earth -- a wrenching story and a wonder-tinged film.

Anyone who can explain the final shot deserves a refund.

I didn't hate Another Earth so much as I found it to have begun with a fascinating sci fi premise only to produce, ultimately, a conventional relationship film.

I loved this movie. Having said that, I'm sure it's not for everyone.

Cahill's visually inconsistent first feature tries to beam epic sci-fi concepts into a micro-human drama, refracting its thought-provoking ideas through the prism of the central emotional relationship.

In emphasizing poetry over plot, mood over mechanics, Another Earth fails to answer the most pressing question of all: Umm, why haven't the tides been affected?

Buried within Another Earth's framework is a wonderful sci-fi movie, but Cahill and Marling have unfortunately set it amongst this otherwise drab and predictable human drama.

Another Earth doesn't fully come off - the slow pace stops it achieving escape velocity - but the intriguing ideas and Marling's touching performance make it a promising debut.

I was hoping that everyone involved would get hit by an asteroid.

Another Earth occasionally slips into chin-stroking pretention, but it flies the flags for indies with ideas bigger than their budgets.

Ambitious but ridiculous.
