One of The Best Out There
john-946-23032912 March 2014
This piece is a great finish to the Collective Evolution series as for me. I enjoyed that CE was able to combine so many cool and interesting topics into one movie, covering so much as they always seem to do. There are a lot of docu's out there now that cover various topics but this one does it different than the rest which is why I think it stands out to me. If you are looking for something that really makes it clear that we are going through a massive change in our world, this film is for you. Other than a few areas where they could have gone a bit deeper, this movie seems to have it all and I hope this isn't the end for CE documentaries!

Great Film. Pushes The Boundaries
shift-think23 August 2014
I thought this film was awesome and I liked how it challenged the boundaries of current thinking. Everything brought up was very relevant to our times and really explored some big questions of today that truly need to be asked.

I'm not sure why the other reviewer claimed what they did as the film is quite scientific in nature and doesn't delve into conspiracy at all. Potentially the person simply doesn't have an open mind?

Be sure to check out this film and the previous ones in the series! They've been a big part of my life. I look forward to more from CE and hope to see some soon. They are really making a big impact! :)

Peace!!

Empty positivity filled with mumbo jumbo
claudiopin2 May 2014
If you like mysticism, go for it. If not, don't waste your time. As well intentioned as the film seems to be, I found it very naive very early on, in its innocent positivity, full of "shifts in paradigm" that didn't go anywhere. Flirting with conspiracy theories, but in a soft, almost convincing way, that ends up by working the opposite effect. Also, a major flaw for a secular humanist like me or anyone who knows a tiny bit of science, it incorporates too many "metaphysics", mysticism and "new age" concepts. Interviewing mystics, astrologists and such, totally empties any credibility any data presented could have. A pity. The movie started to lose me after mentioning an ancient civilization that obviously had no means to know as much as contemporary science does about the universe, such as a hadron collider or telescopes in deep space. It lost me entirely immediately after interviewing three mystics that made vague statements about the "place in the universe where our galaxy is now" and the number of "alignments in the solar system", and "shift of energy to change the humanity". Too much superstitious mambo jumbo. They should have continued with the interesting political analysis and coverage of manifestations around the world, especially the ones that produced changes. We definitely don't need more superstition and false concepts disguised as true astronomy being spread around our already too mystified and ignorant world. Not even for what seems to be a "good cause".
