Stu returns from exile in the desert of the real. Cole gets hype. Nicole is easily amused. Finally, a movie we like: Hints of oedipus, the corrupting nature of power, the difficulties of adaptation, flying above the storm and threading the needle, midcentury freakboys, representation and engaging with art, outer thoughtworlds, women in space, when 'realism' works, when the cgi doesn't suck, and oh how low the bar is in this fallen world.
