Jeanskynebu the audience applauded
Glucedee It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.
Glimmerubro It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.
Frances Chung Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
Ben Harding Perhaps stating it may be the molecule of life is a bit of a stretch - however, the accounts of people who have taken DMT provide something hard to dismiss.Reading a few of the other reviews of this documentary shocks me. Some state that it is complete nonsense, adding it is unscientific and panders to wishful thinking. While the stories seem like something you'd find in a science-fiction movie, (and the visuals certainly don't make that point any less valid!) those comments go against the entire point of the film. Although I do not think these experiences are spiritual in the religious sense, the effect it has on the brain is too profound to ignore. I can almost compare it to marijuana: Some people ascribe its effects to a higher form of consciousness and healing, while others demonize it as unhealthy and corruptive to the mind. DMT and marijuana are, of course, in completely different categories, but their properties add a different dimension to reality. There is no longer an excuse for us to put a barrier between us and what is found in nature. The documentary does not state that drugs are inherently good for you, but that research should provide answers to what extent that may be the case. I will respectfully disagree with other reviewers of this documentary and say it is definitely for the scientific-minded. As with everything, don't believe everything you see. Investigate for yourself - that is, after all what the scientific method is about.
arose-98520 Horrible Documentary - It is starts out with interesting information about the usage, history and some neurology of this hallucinogenic compound. Then half way through the lead researches of the studied inexplicably, fully endorses the idea that these people are literally traveling out into outer space and meeting with some kind of space aliens that live in the furthest extents of our universe and reality.Based on no other reasoning then these people who are tripping their face off on this crazy drug say they saw some crazy stuff while they where dripping balls.It is confounding that these ostensibly intelligent researchers would go on to advocate this pseudo-science meta-physical nonsense with absolutely no evidence or proof or valid reasoning to substantiate their claims. Except the fact that these people are seeing some crazy stuff while they are using a very powerful hallucinogenic compound.Anybody that remotely believes that scientific methods such as using evidence and logic to come to an assertion will be completely turned off by this film. And see that the researches are only posing as legitimate scientist but are more interested in spewing out nonsensical, superstitious spiritual believes. If you believe in spiritual stuff that is fine, believe whatever you want. But don't try to trick me into believing that there is some type of legitimate scientific process that provides evidence for your assumptions.
huiahamon DMT The Spirit Molecule takes you on a journey to explore the possibilities of what this molecule, DMT could mean to man kind...So what is DMT? It is a naturally occurring neurotransmitter that is in almost all living things...and one of the highest levels of DMT can be found in your common lawn grass.With first hand accounts of peoples experiences with DMT, beautiful recounts and animations, this documentary is a fascinating look at what..why...and most importantly, when...The interviews are captivating. When they talk its easy to see why its thought to be something that all humans should experience. There are some interesting facts and ideas about the way it might be working with the human mind, like ideas about it being stored in the pineal gland and its connection to religious experience.It's good, super interesting, you should watch it :)
chrgibson This film has been a long time coming, and although outlandish sounding it is this understanding what the scientific and spiritual world are converging on. The fractal nature of reality is Universal, and the ability of the spirit molecule to facilitate experiences of one with the Universe is neatly explained and validated by a fractal viewpoint. DMT is the gateway to consciousness, and without it we would be completely without perception.The most profound discovery in the last 50 years is that the most powerful psychedelic known to man, with the power to perceive intelligent alien/angel/shamanic beings, resides within animal and plants all around us.A good companion film is the BBCs documentary: The Secret Life of Chaos, in this the fractal viewpoint is explored from a mathematical perspective.
