DMT: The Spirit Molecule Audience Reviews

Diagonaldi Very well executed
ReaderKenka Let's be realistic.
Cooktopi The acting in this movie is really good.
Hadrina The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
bubble bobble Two decades after the first DMTS trials, trans-media producer Mitch Schultz created a documentary film based on this unusual material (using the same name as the book), creating a counterculture sensation that is now available on Netflix, iTunes and Hulu. A variety of experts voice their unique thoughts and experiences with DMT within their respective fields. As Strassman's story unfolds, the contributors weigh in on his remarkable theories, including the synthesis of DMT in our brain's pineal gland, and its link to near-death experiences.
westside-surfer The Spirit Molecule was informative and entertaining introduction to DMT. My research on the pineal gland, which led to DMT, uncovered a flood of pseudoscience and nut-jobs. I keep an open mind, I but stop listening once the speaker ventures into the Illuminati and ancient aliens. No thank you, I'll watch X-files instead.The documentary anchored itself in science then plunged into metaphysics. Half the panel were accredited professionals; the other half were artists, writers, and mystics. Surprisingly, the opposing sides complimented each other by providing an insight connected with their expertise. Besides introducing DMT, the documentary addresses the role of psychedelics in ancient and contemporary life.Now for the problems: 1) Though Joe Rogen is a funny guy, his role as the host lowered the overall credibility almost to a mocking level.2) The speedy cuts between interviewees and visual effects was very distracting. Many times I stopped listening to speaker because the psychedelic visuals kept distracting me. Also the trippy soundtrack, which was neat at first, was overdone. A good director would have sensed when artistic team was going too far.I enjoyed this documentary and recommend it to anyone with an interest in science and metaphysics.
Ali Ghassemi This is one the most horrible documentaries I've ever watched. Anyone who puts "DMT" and "Parallel Universes" together in one sentence, not only does not understand quantum mechanics, but is so stupid to believe a psychedelic drug experience has anything do to with solving quantum mechanics problems.There are hundreds of genius scientists working on every aspect of quantum mechanics for years and billions of dollars are invested in our understanding of our universe ( Have you heard of CERN? ) and suddenly bunch of lunatics find our connection to the "Parallel Universes" by taking a mind-altering drug?!? But I still want people to see it. Everyone needs to realize any information could be presented in a scientific-sounding way with bunch of PhDs in the interview list and yet be so full of s***.
Fire Rose The ever expanding study of mind and spirit by the fields of medicine and science is cracking open the paradigms of both in ways that are difficult to ignore. DMT seems to be the key that opens the doors of consciousness without physical reality to anchor and manifest it. This documentary does an amazing job explaining both the experiences of the substance and the science of the mind as well as what happens to both when they reach the edge of understanding. Medical doctors, physical scientists, artists, and spiritual seekers work together to explore and quantify the effects of potentially the world's most powerful psychotropic substance. Psychedelic research is finally moving (slowly) forward and DMT: The Spirit Molecule captures the essence of how much we don't yet know.
