**Spoiler Alert** this post might give away some of the plot so don't read it if you haven't seen the movie yet.
Around 44 minutes, I couldn't keep watching this. It was interesting in the beginning, and I wondered where they would go with the eyesight stuff. But then it clearly became this very obvious "science vs faith" debate. The "science vs faith" debate was too obvious... There wasn't really any subtlety about it... Then they got trapped in this elevator, and the guy lost his eyesight. I can't really stand it any more, because I have the feeling it is just some overly obvious metaphor for the "science vs faith" debate. Maybe one day I will try watching the rest. In general I find the "science vs faith" debate kind of annoying anyway so this isn't really my thing.

I Origins tries desperately to imbue a deeper metaphysical meaning with its narrative, but the alignment of all its concepts come off as disjointed and pretentious.
January 16, 2016
Sceptical scientist Michael Pitt falls in love with spacey new age model Astrid Bergès-Frisbey, attracted by her dazzling dichromatic eyes [and] the tussle between rationalism and mysticism takes turns that are both unexpected and thought provoking.
July 31, 2014
I Origins challenges too little and ties up things too neatly for it to register as anything more than well-made, well-intentioned hogwash.
October 03, 2014
Shame then that it lets itself down with some iffy dialogue and a slightly anticlimactic ending.
July 25, 2014
With a slew of seemingly random clues unraveling in the pursuit of scientific mystery, Origins becomes gut-punching marvel.
July 31, 2014
Humanistic sci-fi from director Mike Cahill, insofar as it sympathizes with the human longings for both understanding and transcendent mystery.
July 25, 2014
Although the film and the actors keep on looking good, this solemn, soppy, fantasy has nothing to say about science or faith.
July 27, 2014
Big ideas can sometimes lead to great motion pictures or, as in the case of I Origins, colossal misfires.
June 14, 2016
As of yet, we have no science on reincarnation, but the science fiction is definitely getting warmer.
October 03, 2014
Though not every element of the grander mystery story works, there's plenty here to keep you thinking.
August 08, 2014
Cahill spends the entire film bringing a sense of wonder to the desperately rational Ian, and if the film takes on a glow toward the end, that glow feels well-earned.
October 06, 2014
When it shifts away from the relationship, it really starts to feel forced. You can feel Cahill's hand leading you down the path toward another "discovery," and you can only hope the end will justify the means. Put simply, it doesn't.
