An eyeopening and thought-provoking documentary which if you can watch without bias or any preconceived ideas you will enjoy. Although the filmmakers seem to have set out with the intention of supporting geocentrism, it does give a balanced view showing both sides of the debate from those who support the theory and those who strongly deny it. Although I didn't agree with everything in this film I was still fascinated with the information provided and felt it gave a very good argument for geocentrism.If this film highlighted one thing however, for me it was the fact that our mainstream scientists now seem to be failing us, by refusing to consider any facts that don't support current accepted theories and ideas. This was really sad to see, and it was done so openly. It was hard to believe that some of these scientists could literally deny something just because they didn't want to accept it as a possibility. Surely true science should consider all evidence and base findings on fact alone, rather than trying to make something work in favour of studying another possibility because the consequence of the other outcome wouldn't be in their favour. It's an essential watch if only to expose this.

Let me start by saying that I like 'The Principle'–it's just that I don't like it for the reasons the writer and producer would prefer. In a nutshell, the movie is supposed to be an enlightening look at current science related to cosmology and the origins of the universe, calling into question the idea that Earth is not necessarily special and is not the center of the universe. As far as I'm concerned, the premise and conclusions are nonsense, but the way the information is presented gives it an air of credibility and authenticity that prove to be a valuable lesson in how pseudo-science can appear legitimate at face value.

I watched this film at its premiere in San Diego, where I was one of maybe 20 people in attendance. If you are able to stay awake for the entire duration, then I applaud you. I went with an open mind, and left feeling accomplished because I managed to fight off the urge to sleep. A gentleman I did not know approached me afterward and asked me what I thought of the film. I told him the production quality was pretty good, but I was not swayed by its premise. He looked at me with amazement, as if the film's arguments were so air- tight one would have to be a village idiot to deny it. I can assure you it's not all that. Conspiracy theorists will probably love this film. Normal people will find it a good occasion to catch up on sleep.

This is an excellent thought-provoking documentary, well worth watching, that presents in a very balanced manner the discussion surrounding the discovery, twice confirmed, of what has been dubbed by the fearful as "the axis of evil" in the cosmic microwave background. Contrary to the idea of Earth being insignificant, this line in the CMB seems to be something of a stage spotlight shining upon Earth. The discovery of this axis in the CMB is remarkable, the magnitude of which will take years to study and fully appreciate. Nonetheless, I think the next time I see a beautiful sunset, or have occasion to look up into the night-time sky in a dark place, when it seems as if you could reach up and touch the stars, I will more greatly appreciate not only the wonder of the moment, but the ability to experience that wonder. There is, I think, something very reassuring in that ability, and it does not speak of chaotic chance.
