Description
WHAT THE BLEEP DO WE KNOW?! is a new type of film. It is part documentary, part story, and part elaborate and inspiring visual effects and animations. The protagonist, Amanda, played by Marlee Matlin, finds herself in a fantastic Alice in Wonderland experience when her daily, uninspired life literally begins to unravel, revealing the uncertain world of the quantum field hidden behind what we consider to be our normal, waking reality. She is literally plunged into a swirl of chaotic occurrences, while the characters she encounters on this odyssey reveal the deeper, hidden knowledge she doesn?t even realize she has asked for. Like every hero, Amanda is thrown into crisis, questioning the fundamental premises of her life ? that the reality she has believed in about how men are, how relationships with others should be, and how her emotions are affecting her work isn?t reality at all!

The unlikeliest cult hit of 2004 was What the (Bleep) Do We Know?, a lecture on mysticism and science mixed into a sort-of narrative. Marlee Matlin stars in the dramatic thread, about a sourpuss photographer who begins to question her perceptions. Interviews with quantum physics experts and New Age authors are cut into this story, offering a vaguely convincing (and certainly mind-provoking) theory about... well, actually, it sounds a lot like the Power of Positive Thinking, when you get down to it. Talking heads (not identified until film's end) include JZ Knight, who appears in the movie channeling Ramtha, the ancient sage she claims communicates through her (other speakers are also associated with Knight's organization). What she says actually makes pretty good common sense--Ramtha's wiggier notions are not included--and would be easy to accept were it not being credited to a 35,000-year-old mystic from Atlantis. --Robert Horton

A Metaphysical Journey Captured On Film August 28, 2008
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
The timing of my watching this movie a couple of weeks back was impeccable due to the unexpected death of a very dear friend. "The real trick to life is not to be in the know, but to be in the mystery," is one of the many brilliant thoughts you'll hear throughout, as an abundance of teachers and scientists give their view on the meanings of life. The concepts and applications of science and spirituality do come together throughout this movie, and all cleverly woven into a storyline featuring Amanda(Marlee Matlin)as a frustrated photographer who begins to question her own purpose on this earth, and comes to understand, as we all should, how there's always a deeper meaning to everything we experience. You will be enthralled as this film gives you the opportunity to take your own spiritual-metaphysical odyssey as you follow the story and words of wisdom offered, and you will likely feel like a different person by the time the credits are rolling. The storyline itself is also very witty, touching, and funny, plus the whole scene where Amanda observes everybody and then lets loose at the wedding reception is unforgettable, creative, and simply classic.
 THIS IS NOT THE MOVIE August 26, 2008

I liked this longer version of "down the rabbit hole" but it is not the movie that I thought it was, the movie is "what the bleep do we know"
More than what I needed August 19, 2008
Interesting but it was too complicated for my adult students and it did not hold their attention very long. I will not use it in the future.
A must see July 27, 2008
