The Sunset Limited (2011)

One room. Two men. And a 90-minute dialog between the two on the topic of belief in God. Why? Because one of them has just attempted to commit a suicide, and the other one saved his life.

So what is life? Why to live one? How to live one? Should the Bible be a guide, or does the history of the world teach us a lesson? What's pain and what's happiness? What's darkness, and what is light, and after all, is there this light all around us actually? These are the questions discussed.

The movie is a dramatically acted philosophical dispute on a controversial topic. I enjoyed watching it, and can see why people often rate it as 10 of 10 (see IMDB rating stats for this title.) However, I think it's a bit overrated.

The problem is that the movie lacks any innovation on the topic discussed. I couldn't find absolutely no new arguments from both arguing parties. There's no unexpected turns in the discussion. After having watched it, you may find yourself being even more convinced in what you believe (or don't believe if that's the case.) Yet it's still interesting to watch and re-think some of your views and principles.
