"... More thrilling than any late-90s Keanu Reeves movie." - Barry Hertz, Globe and Mail

"The movie illustrates clearly that scientific subjects are not inherently hard to understand, and that the more people who make the effort to engage with such ideas, the more likely they are to materialize." - Jennie Kermode, Eye for Film
