Editorial Review:
The unlikeliest cult hit of 2004 was What the (Bleep) Do We Know?, a lecture on mysticism and science mixed into a sort-of narrative. Marlee Matlin stars in the dramatic thread, about a sourpuss photographer who begins to question her perceptions. Interviews with quantum physics experts and New Age authors are cut into this story, offering a vaguely convincing (and certainly mind-provoking) theory about... well, actually, it sounds a lot like the Power of Positive Thinking, when you get down to it. Talking heads (not identified until film's end) include JZ Knight, who appears in the movie channeling Ramtha, the ancient sage she claims communicates through her (other speakers are also associated with Knight's organization). What she says actually makes pretty good common sense--Ramtha's wiggier notions are not included--and would be easy to accept were it not being credited to a 35,000-year-old mystic from Atlantis. --Robert Horton
WHAT THE BLEEP DO WE KNOW?! is a new type of film. It is part documentary, part story, and part elaborate and inspiring visual effects and animations. The protagonist, Amanda, played by Marlee Matlin, finds herself in a fantastic Alice in Wonderland experience when her daily, uninspired life literally begins to unravel, revealing the uncertain world of the quantum field hidden behind what we consider to be our normal, waking reality. She is literally plunged into a swirl of chaotic occurrences, while the characters she encounters on this odyssey reveal the deeper, hidden knowledge she doesn?t even realize she has asked for. Like every hero, Amanda is thrown into crisis, questioning the fundamental premises of her life ? that the reality she has believed in about how men are, how relationships with others should be, and how her emotions are affecting her work isn?t reality at all!

Rating:  - New Age Sewage and Pseudoscience
Why one star?
1. The entire logical chain of this film is rendered null by a misunderstanding of the "observer effect" in scientific research. Ask any high school science teacher to explain it to you in simple terms, and you will understand why this movie is nothing more than a farce and fallacy.
2. Masaro Emoto's work does not follow the scientific method.
3. Through clever editing, the producers often twist the words of the authentic scientists featured in ... Read More
Rating:  - The Quality of Thinking
When "What the Bleep Do You Know" came to the theatre, I was almost alone in the audience. I told a lot of my friends about it; and the second time I went there were seven of us in the audience, six of whom I knew. So this was not well publicized in our small city, but still drew people to it. Had it played more than a week, perhaps we'd have had a dozen! I recently saw a used copy and decided to add it to my collection.
I really enjoyed this docu-drama. I found the use of actors, ... Read More
Rating: - Pretty Good Worth Watching
I enjoyed it very much. The scenarios with the deaf woman were really unnecessary but not so distracting to make it unwatchable. It was fun, thought provoking, etc. I would recommend it if you like this genre.
Rating:  - what the bleep?
I viewed this film in theatre at the time of its release and thoroughly enjoyed it. Life is so full of wonders and this was still another way of exploring another level of it. Another level yet the basis of our daily living we are unconscience of. Great film to view either alone or in group setting.
Rating: - We literally create our own possibilities
Have you ever had a movie recommended and watched it just to see what all the fuss was about? That's how I came to watch "What The Bleep Do We Know." If you are interested in the power of the human mind and how it affects self-development, it's my turn to recommend this DVD to you.
First let me say I know nothing about quantum physics. What The Bleep Do We Know isn't a DVD for scientists; it's for everyday people who want to understand how the human mind works to help create our day-to-day ... Read More
