Viewing Notes

Had never even heard of this movie until I saw it on the shelf at my library. How does that even happen these days? Especially a high concept fantasy sci-fi flick such as this.

Generally love the world building even if it really makes little sense as to why there are two opposing worlds and yet the inhabitants cannot cross worlds but they do… whaaaaa? Everything else is is quite gorgeous for a rather simple love story even with the intentional Garden of Eden symbolism. Not a bad watch esp. for the marvelous CG work. Would be pretty to view on the big screen but I’m guess this was DTV since I didn’t know about it. For shame.
