samvelgasparyan Whoever doesn't know anything about Law of Attraction I feel sorry for you. After watching this movie, I started reading all the books, The Secret, The magic, the Power and Hero. Law of attraction actually transformed my life into something I never could imagine. It's so legit, first you'll have self doubts but slowly when you actually start truly understand it, it will transform your life. This is not bull. I truly feel like it's incredible, every morning I wake up and I'm reading one of the books. If you watched the movie and you like it try the books and you will fall in love. After months of trying to convince my little brother to start reading the books and law of attraction will change your life, he finally listened to me and slowly his getting mind F ed because how insanely beautiful Law of attraction is. DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND READ THE BOOK OR AT LEAST WATCH THE MOVIE. I never been happier and more graitful in my life.
blueluna-04138 I thought the idea of this concept was good, and there is an element of truth. But only an element. The fact of the matter is there are positive and negative experiences that people face. To believe you caused every health issue, every broken heart, etc. Is not only wrong but is actually quite destructive. Is a happier person healthy? Or what about when they are cured.... Are they all of a sudden happy people? Is a sick child that way because they are unhappy? If you really dig into it you can see the lies.That being said I do believe in faith and that prayer leads to positive outcomes. That's not the type of faith in the movie though. In the movie you get what you ask for no matter how horrible bc you are emitting that frequency to the universe. In a faith based religion you are simply trusting that a greater being is keeping watch over you. It does not rely on you really except that obviously you need to at least be trying. For example you can't win the lottery if you never buy a ticket. That's just common sense.There are many, many things that I've asked for it and received it. Some just happened randomly, most I worked hard to receive. There are also negative things that I did not ask for and received. So I I take the positive and negative experiences which shape my overall being..whether that be good or bad. Still we exist of outside of these experiences. Like a dream, we are a part of it but also not a part of it.So that would really be my "secret" for life. Be goal oriented, but live in the moment. Don't let experiences define you, but believe in a higher being.
bjosh-04266 This was well done but smelled of a hidden agenda. I was always waiting to hear that "The secret" would ultimately be linked to one's "relationship to a Christian God." To the crew's credit they did not overtly claim that your happiness had to be through their "God" but, particularly toward the end of the movie, there was a significant uptick in the mention of "God." The contributors also repeatedly referred to the need "for absolute faith," and the need to have "complete blind faith." Using the Cosmos and Universe as a simile to segue into religiosity is coming more and more common with evangelicals. I REALLY didn't like that fact that EVERY SINGLE contributor interviewed on camera linked happiness to materialism. EVERYONE of them talked of happiness as a new car, a bigger home, making a million dollars, etc. In fact most of the interviewees, talked about their material gains as the source of their attraction and happiness. It's pretty sad when not one contributor (NOT ONE) talks about less materialistic, and less selfish things like reducing crime, poverty, etc.as a source of happiness, attraction, and attainment.Lastly, after one hour I found myself wondering if the movie would ever move on. What I mean by this, and is repeated in previous reviews, is that it goes on ad nauseum about "the secret." What is said in the first 15 minutes of the film, is repeated over, and over, and over, and over, for the next hour plus. They just rephrased the verbiage.This was obviously a sermon being preached to the viewer but just less obvious. Insidious at best.
vsswift I only got through about 20 minutes of it laughing my @ss off. Then I got board and came here to look up the actors. It had all the great characters of a typical mockumentary. However, when I came here I was horrified to find out this was not intended as a joke. Wow.....because I was about 95% positive this was a spin off from an SNL skit. Any-who, at this point after reading some amusing reviews, I would like to say: for all of you who gave it 10 stars, the next time your in the desert, I have a great pile of sand to sell to you. Look me up! (This is me trying to type ten lines. Gibberish. Why is there a ten line minimum. Seriously, how could anyone find ten lines to write about this? 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14)
