I saw the film when it first came out and I loved it.  Of course .... the
story is a big 'paella' of different belief systems.  That's ok with me.
The movie most always represent a belief system, even if it shows
reincarnation the same way we believe to be true.  I found the movie very
beautiful particularly the scenes with R. Williams flying through the
painting, that looked like a Van Gogh.

I have recommended the movie to at least a couple of my friends and always
on the basis of beauty.  It is like "eye candy".
