Movie Info

Part narrative, part documentary, and part animation, What the #$*! Do We Know?! was filmed with the intent of expressing the neurological processes and so called "quantum uncertainty" of life. With the help of a directorial triumvirate consisting of Betsy Chasse, William Arntz, and Mark Vicente, Marlee Matlin stars as Amanda, whose uninspired daily routine is abruptly altered into a chaotic, Alice in Wonderland-style reality, complete with quirky characters and wildly different perspectives on life. As Amanda falls deeper into the experience, she's forced to drastically reconsider her perceptions of interpersonal relationships, men, and the fundamental principles of life. What the #$*! Do We Know?! is supplemented by a host of mystics and scientists, who are interviewed intermittently throughout the film for their wisdom and knowledge concerning religion, science, the thin line between them, and the consequences of blurring that line. ~ Tracie Cooper, Rovi

Audience Reviews for What the Bleep Do We Know!?

    Don't be fooled by this pseudoscientific garbage that uses misleading information of quantum mechanics to sell some self-help propaganda for a cult without even having the good faith to tell us the identity of its "illustrious" interviewees before the movie is already over.

    "How far down the rabbit hole do you want to go?" A fascinating and provocative documentary about quantum physics, What the Bleep Do We Know!? is incredibly creative and visionary. The film explores the nature of reality and the effects that the mind has on it. The ideas presented are really exciting and mind blowing. However, the film overreaches when trying to apply the concepts to religion and psychology. And, a few of the experts interviewed have questionable credentials and speak beyond the scope of physics. Yet overall, What the Bleep Do We Know!? is an engrossing film about the endless possibilities of the mind.

    I found this movie very interesting, depending the way you look at it. You have to appreciate a movie that questions science, especially quantum physics. It's original.

    The whole deal about quantum physics is interesting, but the story in-between, about the deaf photographer sucks monkey-fuck. It just ruins the whole thing. + the fact that too many of the "experts" in the movie romanticize around it and builds it up to something waaay bigger than it really is. Positive thinking.
