"What The Bleep Do I Know?"
A few aspects of "What The Bleep Do We Know?" really caught my attention, while a few others made me laugh as I pondered the ability for them to be real. To me, The film as a whole was both effective and ineffective. It was effective because it explained the reasoning behind quantum physics and how our lives are based completely off that. I liked the fact that they went into deep detail on all the aspects they covered. The film was ineffective because it lacked real world, down to earth studies. Come on, changing the physical appearance of water? Highly doubtful. Saying that if you believe you can walk on water, it will happen.

They were refuted by actually saying in the film to try what they were saying, and if it didn't work for you then you criticize the thoughts of them all you wanted. They were sort of pushing you to try and make a positive effort to change your life and well being. All of the points were supported throughout the various tests all of the scientists proved. Take for example how the Japanese guy talked to the water, blessed it, and it change the physical view of the water through a microscope. That seems ludicrous to me, but hey, what the bleep so I know? Also, how the scientists said that if a man believes he can walk on water, it will happen. That is totally insane and
