    That’s why it was so great. It wasn’t about the hero punching people in the face whilst an army of troopers consistently fail to shoot them, or destiny babies failing upwards towards success.

    This was a movie about normal people. Nameless people who were all parts of a whole, an orchestra of concerted effort to overcome the insurmountable. Some of them were in it for the ideal, but most of them were just in it to keep the person next to them alive. No one will sing their praises, and they don’t expect anyone to, as none of them expected to see the light of day.

    It was one of the most humanist movies I’ve seen in a long time, universe be damned.
