Neil Degrasse Tyson was a bit more polite but his review of the movie

My neighbor tried to get us to go with them and was surprised when I
said it was a road runner cartoon.


It's just a fictional movie. Dr. Zhivago was a terrific book and movie,
though the movie differed from the book, and neither really depicted the
level of horror of the first few years of communist rule in Russia.


I understand fiction and if it is sold as fantasy like Superman, I can
suspend disbelief long enough to enjoy it but these movies are sold as
being somewhat of a plausible reality and I just have problems with
the whole premise.

I enjoy a good roadrunner cartoon too but they don't try to sell it as
being something you are supposed to believe.


Same here, I'd just as soon watch travel shows or other real things.
