Editorial Review:
Product Description: Explores human perception, quantum uncertainty and life at a cellular and mollecular level through the eyes of a jaded divorced photographer who begins to question the reality of her existence. Genre: Feature Film-Drama Rating: UN Release Date: 1-AUG-2006 Media Type: DVD
Amazon.com: 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

Average Rating: 
Rating: - This is BETTER than science-fiction.
Mind bending, fun and creative in it's presentation to reveal the inner layers of ourselves. The whole concept of the film is plausible, exciting and new territory in our spiritual growth. This is a must see for all who are searching for more depth into their own behavior. Marlee Matlin gives a stellar performance depicting same life scenarios we all encounter in our lives each day. Awesome film, expands your thinking capabilities.
Rating: - Buyers (and Channeled Spirits) Beware!
Any Amazon buyers who are thinking of purchasing this DVD are strongly encouraged to first go and do some checking on the Internet about this movie and its background. What you find out may or may not surprise you.
I didn't check deeply enough, and regret the money I spent on buying this DVD. I watched only one side of the three double-sided discs (the original theatrical version) and then filed it away under "DVDs to be pawned off at my local record/video shop". I will not watch the ... Read More

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.
