Primer
Over the holiday break, I watched the movie
Primer.
This is a 2004 sci-fi film that I hadn't heard of, but found ranked pretty high up on
Rotten Tomatoes' List of top 100 Sci-fi movies so I decided to check it out.
While my career is in computer science, I did also pick up a Bachelor's of Science in Electrical Engineering, and the opening of this movie was just great. This movie sounds like physics and engineering, and dumbs down nothing. It is a complex, intelligent story. It is pretty hard to follow actually, and I think I could do with a second watch-through to try to figure things out.
If you are into smart sci-fi, this is definitely high up on the list.
