Leave your thoughts about Insignificance.
| Paste MagazineSean GandertNone of its characters have any sort of inner life and their motivations are simply to fulfill the goals of the screenplay. |
| Groucho ReviewsPeter CanaveseReflects Roeg's views of the absurdity of American history and our compulsion to destroy beauty. [Blu-ray] |
| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzIt is a noble idea for a film to satire some of the best known American pop culture heroes of the 1950s. |
| Cinema ScopeJosé Teodoro... it's calculated misdirection with little in the way of greater purpose. |
| The RingerAdam NaymanA true oddity even by the filmmaker's standards, it's a minor masterpiece of American counter-mythology, with the most comically apocalyptic finale since Dr. Strangelove. |
| Q Network Film DeskJames Kendrickan intriguing, but ultimately slight "what if" fantasy |
| Urban CinefileAndrew L. UrbanThis audacious hypothetical is at once funny and dramatic, sometimes a little lopsided but always interesting |
| User ReviewRui Mfantastic, beautiful movie. russell is a standout, and her scenes with Michael Emil are great |
| User ReviewSteven CQuirky, bizzare, moralising and physics too - its is as good as it gets! |
| User ReviewBarry LOne more in my top ten, the scene where Marilyn Monroe demonstrates the theory of relativity to Einstein is one of the greatest ever made. |
