Curtis' shtick gets old after awhile. To hear him tell it we can no longer make sense of the world because it's complicated and politicians lie to us all the time, so we retreat into a mirrored room of our self, gratifying every desire to escape thinking about our futile life and soon approaching death.

I've watched just about everything he's made and honestly, he starts to sound like a moralizing preacher after awhile. We are selfish, self-centered, infantile, wanting computers to watch over us so we our worst impulses don't destroy us and so on. Things a preacher might say.

But his documentaries prompt me to think in different ways with other ideas, so I appreciate them for that
