  • Plot- or character-driven? Plot
  • Strong character development? No
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.5

A very funny, albeit tragic, look into all humanities and our future. Miller perfectly fuses the mysticism of religion, the stalwart progress of science, and the sadness of human memory. 9/10.
